Mississippi House Bill 4079 amends the law to extend the repeal date of Jackson County's hotel/motel tourism tax from July 1, 2026, to July 1, 2030. The tax, which is levied on hotel and motel room rentals, is used for the promotion of tourism and tourism-related activities in the county. The Board of Supervisors has the discretion to allocate funds to the Mississippi Gulf Coast Regional Convention and Visitors Bureau or other entities for tourism promotion. The tax is collected in the same manner as state sales taxes, and the revenue is not considered general fund revenues.
