room tax revenues
Overview of lodging tax income, accounting, and spending for tourism.
Whether 2026 room tax collections and the short-term rental count continue to slide, and whether that changes tourism spending plans.
Typically discussed at City Council. Check back when the next agenda is published.
Council heard that 2025 room tax revenue ended about 10% lower than 2024, and the Room Tax Commission finished the year with a little over $75,000 in its general fund. The same update flagged fewer short-term rentals (about 40 down to 34), which matters because that’s part of the room-tax base.
