Tourism Director Discusses Lodging Tax Ballot Proposition

A topic of discussion at this week’s Sheridan City Council study session was the county-wide Lodging Tax Ballot Proposition that may be on the ballot for this year’s general election in November. Sheridan County Travel and Tourism Director Shawn Parker says he’s seeking a resolution of support for the ballot proposition from each of the municipalities within Sheridan County.

Parker provided the Council with a regional comparison of lodging tax numbers.

The Council will consider a resolution of support of the 4% lodging tax ballot proposition at their regularly scheduled business meeting Monday night. The Sheridan County Commissioners at their meeting Tuesday, will decide whether to place the proposition on the ballot for the general election on November 8.
