Bill Summary

Relative to room excise tax exempted lodging accommodations at certain government institutions. Revenue.

AI Summary

This bill amends the existing law to exempt certain types of lodging accommodations from the room excise tax. Specifically, it exempts lodging at federal, state, or municipal institutions, as well as lodging at religious, charitable, philanthropic, and public/private educational institutions, with the caveat that this exemption does not apply to accommodations provided in a manner ancillary to the institution's purpose. The bill also specifies that lodging accommodations provided by colleges and universities that are not student dormitories or faculty housing and are available to the general public are considered ancillary to the educational purpose and therefore subject to the tax.
