City of Jackson; extend repealer on CVB, and authorize additional 1% hotel/motel tax 1/2% restaurant tax.

Summary

The bill would push back the sunset date for the Jackson Convention and Visitors Bureau from 2026 to 2030 and raise local taxes – an extra 1% on hotel/motel room rentals and 0.5% on restaurant sales, on top of the existing 1% levy. It requires the city to hold an election, with at least 60% of voters approving, before the new taxes can be imposed. The measure also outlines bureau governance, funding handling, and oversight, but it died in committee.
