From the meeting
Staff asked whether council wants to pursue legislation increasing the occupancy tax rate from 5% to 6% and whether the Event Center should shift to General Fund support. The memo shows the 6% change would add about $276,000 to $296,807 in annual occupancy tax revenue, depending on the fiscal year scenario, and could reduce the Event Center operating gap. Any move still requires General Assembly authorization.

Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.
