Fiscal Note Summary


Effect this measure will have on costs and revenues of state government.


A six percent increase in the hotel/motel tax would bring an increase for municipalities in the amount of $4,398,846. This amount was calculated by using current amounts budgeted for municipalities and increasing to 6 percent. The breakdown is as follows: Class I&II - $3,069,000 Class III - 1,013,450, and Class IV - 316,396. I have e-mailed a copy of the breakdown of these numbers to Neva Maynor.
