Officials from Montgomery County did not respond to our request for fiscal impact.


Oversight assumes this proposal allows Montgomery County to impose a transient guest tax of up to five percent and could not be implemented without voter approval. Therefore, Oversight assumes this proposal to be permissive and would have no state or local fiscal impact.
