Hi:
I just heard that the tax to guests for rentals in SoWal went up to 11.5%. Can someone tell me when that started or will start? Is it just SoWal or other areas (e.g., all of Florida) as well?
Thanks much.

It went up to 11.5% in October 2009.

Don't know if you read the Local Government forum much, but you might recall much debate last spring/summer about a proposed increase in the bed tax in order to attract low-cost air service to our area.
This is it.

PaulaBeach FanaticMichigan but someday in SoWal as well3,747 postsJoined View profileMessageBeach FanaticAuthorThanks, all. I was told by our rental management company that the tax went up to 11.5% and I had been telling potential guests 11%, so I'll now tell the potential guests the correct amount.
