Authorizes a transient guest tax for general revenue purposes in Knob Noster upon voter approval

HB 1192 would allow the city of Knob Noster to impose a 5% tax on hotel, motel, and campground stays for transient guests (those staying 31 days or less per quarter) if voters approve it. The tax would be added separately to guest bills and used for the city's general revenue, not specific projects. It requires a voter referendum at a state election, with the tax only taking effect if a majority approves the specific rate. The bill is currently pending in committee (referred to Emerging Issues on May 15, 2025), as it does not authorize the tax itself but sets the framework for voter approval.
