Bill > HB2246

This bill authorizes counties in Missouri with certain population sizes to impose a transient guest tax of up to 5% on hotel and motel room charges, with 50% of the proceeds used for law enforcement and the remaining 50% used to fund tourism promotion. The tax would need to be approved by voters in the county before it can be implemented. The bill repeals and replaces an existing section of Missouri law to allow for this new transient guest tax.
