Chapleau Town Council could move forward with its Municipal Accommodation Tax as it meets tonight.
The agenda for tonight's regular meeting includes a by-law to establish the tax, which has been in a form of "limbo" since it was initially approved by Council more than a year ago - Mayor Michael Levesque explains the by-law is necessary for implementation.
If implemented, the tax would be a four percent surcharge for hotels, bed and breakfasts, or AirBnB-style rentals, with plans for the funds to go toward tourism-related items, including tourism-related infrastructure.
Council's also set to further discuss plans for local transit, the 2022 Welcome Guide, and nominations for the 2022 "Buddy Swanson" Volunteer Recognition Awards, normally handed out as part of Canada Day celebrations.
There's also an "in-camera" item, once again relating to CAO recruitment.
The meeting will be held in Civic Centre Council Chambers at 6:30 tonight.
