Executive Summary with Rationale and Impact:
Detailed description of the item and why we are doing it. This can be a separate attachment.
This ordinance request seeks to remove the sections that impose a license fee for sale, use and lodger's tax accounts. The model ordinance discussed above includes a provision to not impose license fees on entities obtaining sale & use tax accounts as marketplace facilitators, multi-channel sellers and marketplaces. This will create unequal treatment of our brick and mortar local businesses, therefore the DoF is seeking to stop collecting the license fee beginning on 01/01/2021.
