Durango City Council election results and the approval of an increased lodgers tax, based on preliminary results tallied earlier this week, affirmed the community’s concern for a healthy business economy – at least in part.
Yet the lodgers tax increase passed by only a very slim margin. Durangoans supported the increase from 2% to 5.25% by 2,563 to 2,404 votes, or 51.6%.
But Letters to the Editor during the election cycle suggested many who supported an increase opposed its 55% allocation to tourism marketing. Not all residents are convinced that we need to continue aggressively marketing Durango as a tourist destination – especially after last year’s damage to our fragile natural environment.
