Summary

The bill lets Cherokee County levy an extra up to 3% room occupancy tax on hotels, motels, inns, tourist camps and similar lodging, in addition to the existing 3% tax. All net proceeds must be sent quarterly to a Cherokee County Tourism Development Authority, which must use at least two‑thirds of the money to promote travel and the remainder for tourism‑related projects. The law also spells out how the authority is formed, how long members serve, and how it reports its spending.
