Authorizes Shannon County to submit a question to the voters on a surcharge tax for certain watercraft rentals and transient guest accommodations
HB 3469 would allow Shannon County (a county with 7,000-8,000 residents) to impose a 5% surcharge on watercraft rentals (like kayaks and canoes) and short-term lodging (such as hotels, motels, campgrounds, or vacation rentals for stays under 31 days). The tax must be approved by voters in a county election before taking effect, and the revenue would go to the county’s general fund. Businesses collecting these rentals would be required to separately charge and remit the tax to the county. The bill does not change existing taxes but adds this new surcharge subject to voter approval.
