Move Colorado is writing to strongly support the proposed amendment to the RTA Lodging Tax on SB24-032, offered by Senator Priola.
This amendment is crucial for expanding local multimodal transportation infrastructure across Colorado and ensuring long-term funding, which is critical for planning successful statewide integrated transportation systems.
The current limitations on lodging tax collections hinder the ability of Regional Transportation Authorities (RTAs) to raise necessary funds for transportation projects, particularly in tourist towns where lodging taxes are already levied. By amending these limitations, we can empower RTAs to leverage existing lodging taxes to their full potential, ensuring sustainable funding for essential transportation initiatives.
We urge the Colorado General Assembly to prioritize this important legislative fix during the 2024 session. By supporting this amendment, we can unlock new opportunities for improving transportation infrastructure, promoting economic growth, and enhancing the overall quality of life for residents and visitors alike.
Thank you for considering this crucial issue. Please do not hesitate to contact us for further information.
