During a commissioner workshop Sept. 11, Mayor Paul Kuhns said, the city will first look to the General Assembly for the authority to impose the lodging tax.
The state already collects a lodging tax of 8 percent on hotels and motels. Kuhns said most of that money leaves Rehoboth – 5 percent goes to the state’s general fund; 1 percent goes to beach replenishment; 1 percent goes to the State Tourism Office and the remaining 1 percent is split among county tourism offices. Kuhns said this new lodging tax would be for Rehoboth only.

One of those weasels looked around and said "look!! There's something we haven't taxed yet!"
Instead of marching him outside for hanging, we merely DEBATE the merits of paying ANOTHER tax.
Have you EVER heard a politician say "Tax? Don't ever mention that word in my presence again?"
I didn't think so.
Hang them all.
STOP with all your wants and greed. That's what ruined OC many years ago! You all work so hard NOT to be OC - then reports like this come out???? Stop with the insanity or your bottom line will suffer!
