Summary

Commissioner Ron Sanders proposed using Innkeepers tax revenues to pay the Music Center mortgage under the existing 25/75% split, but said the decision rests with County Council and he will discuss it with the Music Center Board.

Commissioner Ron Sanders raised a proposal that would apply Innkeepers tax receipts toward the Music Center mortgage payment while maintaining the current 25/75% split used in the pilot program. Sanders acknowledged the matter is outside the commissioners’ authority and said he would raise it with the Music Center Board and with County Council, which would have final say.

No formal motion or vote was taken by the commissioners on the proposal during the Feb. 18 meeting; Sanders framed the suggestion as a next-step discussion item rather than an immediate change to county budget allocations.
