Jay Kaufman, Chair of the Joint Committee on Revenue, and then Rachel Lake, Operations and Constituent Services Director for Senator Julian Cyr, who represents the Cape and Islands.As we mentioned in previous communications on the topic of the Lodging Tax, the momentum is growing among Cape and Islands Chambers of Commerce and state legislators across the state to impose the 11.7% Lodging Tax to all short-term rentals, with 5.7% going to the state and up to 6% to the towns.Our opinion piece that was published in the Cape Cod Times on April 5, outlines our reasons for opposing this tax.Despite our concerted efforts for nearly ten years, it is becoming increasingly clear that legislators are intent on imposing this tax and will likely succeed.Homeowners can certainly continue to lobby against this tax, but a more realistic approach at this point might be to attempt to mitigate the negative effects it would have on the Cape and Islands.
