St. Pete Beach Mayor Adrian Petrila seeks to introduce a tourist tax for visitors. This would raise $200 million for infrastructure repairs without raising taxes for local residents.

Florida (USA) wants to introduce a tourist tax. This is reported by UNN with reference to The Newsweek.

Details

Tourists may face the need to pay a fee when visiting the popular St. Pete Beach if Mayor Adrian Petrila's goal of taxing visitors from other cities for entering the city is realized.

According to Petrila, to introduce a toll, the city has begun preliminary negotiations with FDOT about possibly taking control of Gulf Boulevard.

I think there's a way we can solve our $200 million problem. We can repair the sewers, upgrade the storm sewer system, improve our roads... and do it without raising taxes on our residents.

- said Petrila.

Recall

Earlier, UNN reported that a new sign was spotted at the White House amid the government shutdown, which caused a negative reaction from lawmakers.
