Summary

The bill would push back the sunset of Laurel’s 3% hotel and motel room‑rental tax from 2026 to 2036, keeping the tax in place to fund tourism promotion. It requires a citywide election before the tax can be levied and directs the revenue to a dedicated tourism account, not the general fund. The measure failed and died in committee.
