SB955 amends the definition of "hotel" to include campground sites and provides county commissions the authority to authorize campground sites for the purpose of collecting hotel occupancy tax. Any tax collected from such designated campsites will be specifically earmarked for public safety services within that county. The bill also defines terms such as "hotel operator," "hotel room," and "consideration paid." The purpose of this bill is to clarify the scope of facilities subject to the hotel occupancy tax and to ensure that tax revenues from designated campground sites are directed towards.
