Relating to the use of hotel occupancy tax revenue by certain municipalities.

SB 913 repeals a provision in Texas law that restricted how certain cities could use hotel occupancy tax revenue. The bill removes these restrictions, allowing municipalities to allocate such funds for any purpose starting from the bill's effective date (either immediately or September 1, 2025). Revenue collected before the effective date remains subject to the previous rules. This change directly affects cities that collect hotel taxes, giving them more flexibility in budgeting for future revenue. The bill does not alter existing tax rates or create new funding sources.
