Do people who visit cities/counties for vacation/business trips not require services (indirectly)? Roads, beaches, parks, public restrooms, parking lots, etc. They all have to be maintained.
Come to Pismo Beach (where I'm at) on any Summer weekend. 75%+ of the people on the beach are from out of town. Should I pay higher property taxes to pick up their beer bottles and pay for the extra police officers that need to be on duty?
- makmanalp 16y agoI guess that's a good point, I didn't think of situations like that. So maybe some extra tax is in fact in order. However, what about banning stays less than one month? Doesn't that smack of trying to get rid of competition?
- patrickgzill 16y agoDon't the people who visit Pismo pay local taxes, provide local employment at restaurants, buy gas at the local gas station, etc?
