----------
Consider proposed Transient Occupancy Tax Resolution, and take appropriate
action.
JITEM EXPLANATION:
There is some community concern about our proposal to increase the Transient
Occupancy Tax (TOT). The concern is, will the TOT tax continue to be
increased by the City Council in order to provide additional revenue for the
City of Carlsbad? In order to forestall this concern, it is proposed that
the City Council adopt the attached Resolution, indicating that this City
Council will not propose to increase the Transient Occupancy Tax above 10%,
and that this Council recommends to all future City Councils through the next
15 years, that there be no additional increases in the T.O.T. Through this
recommendation, it is intended that future City Councils would support this
Resolution when reviewing and seeking future revenue sources. It is
recognized that this Resolution is advisory and non -binding on future
councils. However, it clearly indicates our intent, and recommendation.
