Chapleau's "Municipal Accommodation Tax" remains in limbo.
While it was included on the agenda for this week's Council meeting, the item wasn't seconded and was instead tabled for future discussion - that leaves its future in question, as Mayor Michael Levesque notes Council's approved the concept, but it needs a by-law to implement it.
If implemented, the tax would be a four percent surcharge for hotels, bed and breakfasts, or AirBnB-style rentals - half of the money would go to tourism, the rest to maintenance of structures that may drum up tourism.
