Applications open for hotel occupancy tax revenue, uses

BOERNE — Organizations that offer programs to attract overnight tourists to the city’s hotels, motels, and other lodging establishments may be eligible to receive a portion of hotel occupancy tax funds to support their programs.

Each year, Boerne receives hotel occupancy tax revenue from a tax that is levied on guest rooms at local hotels, motels, inns and short-term rental facilities.

State law requires a two-part test to meet the eligibility for HOT funds.
