City of Greenwood; extend the repeal date on the tourism tax and the Greenwood Tourism Commission.
SB 3060 extends the expiration date of a Mississippi law that authorizes the City of Greenwood to impose a tourism tax on hotels, motels, and restaurants (capped at 1% of eligible revenue) and operate a Tourism Commission. The bill delays the automatic repeal of this existing framework, ensuring the current tax structure and commission remain active without changes to tax rates or commission duties. This directly affects Greenwood-based hotels, motels, and restaurants that pay the tourism tax, as well as the city government managing the commission. The extension preserves the current system for promoting tourism, with no new provisions or policy changes beyond the delayed repeal date.
