I have been hosting in Sacramento for over year or so and am registered with the City.
On October 23, the City Council will be holding a public hearing on their plans to adopt a Resolution of Intention to establish "the Sacramento Tourism Infrastructure District No. 2018-04 (the STID) to levy taxed on short-term rentals. They state in the notice sent out that the tax will be at 1% to pay for a Ballroom and the STID annual budget of $3.12 Million dollars.
It seems to me that they are trying to establish a district to impose regulations, inforcement, and taxes down the road for us small business owners.
Many other cities do not have such districts and agencies to impose these regulations, such as Costa Mesa, CA. I question if this is something that would be benificial for us or just be burden in the future.
I wanted to get the communities feedback and thoughts on the issue. Would love to hear your thoughts. If protest is in the picture, it needs to be fast.
