Fulton County board votes to proceed with hotel-motel tax distribution after legal review
Summary
After a staff briefing with the interim treasurer and county fiscal staff (CFO on Zoom), Fulton County commissioners voted unanimously to move forward with distributing hotel-motel tax revenue according to legal advice.
Fulton County commissioners voted Feb. 10 to proceed with distribution of hotel-motel tax revenue based on legal advice following a staff briefing.
Interim County Treasurer Amy Bishop, Fiscal Administrator Sue Reed and Mike Lamb, chief fiscal officer of Wessel & Co. (participating by Zoom), met with commissioners to discuss distribution options and legal considerations. The transcript records the discussion but does not specify the proposed distribution formula, recipient entities or dollar amounts.
Following the staff briefing, Commissioner Randy H. Bunch moved to "move forward with distribution of Hotel Motel Tax Revenue according to legal advice/recommendation." The motion was recorded as passing unanimously.
The minutes do not document the legal advice itself or a timeline for distribution; the board's vote authorizes county staff to act consistent with counsel guidance. Commissioners did not record any follow-up deadlines or specific allocation plans in the minutes.
