A Municipal Accommodation Tax (MAT) is a tax paid by visitors on short term overnight accommodations and remitted to the municipality. At least 50% of the net revenue is directed to a destination marketing organization with a mandate to promote tourism and marketing within the municipal boundaries. The other 50% can be used by the municipality for investments to enhance tourism, community amenities, or other municipal purposes.
The input collected in this survey will help inform part of the report to Town Council that will make recommendations towards the next steps to implementing a MAT in Bracebridge. Thank you for your time and feedback.
