Lodgers’ Tax Update
• There are 3 hotels paying late. Fairfield Inn, Townplace Suites
and La Quinta.
• Fairfield and Townplace submitted 4 months of reports and
funds in February, therefore that number for funds and beds
looks very high. It was approx. $120,000.
• The 3 hotels stated above have not remitted for January (due in
Feb). That is why the number looks low in February. They are
larger hotels therefore the report still does not reflect the true
activity.
• There is a total of $9,377.28 of late fees attributable to these
late reports that they have paid (not reflected on this report)
