The Montrose City Council has approved a ballot measure for the November elections, proposing to raise the lodging tax from 0.9% to 6%. This increase aims to fund infrastructure improvements due to increased tourism. Local hotel managers voice concerns that the hike may reduce demand for lodging. If approved, the new tax will take effect on January 1, 2025, allowing Montrose to align more closely with the average Colorado lodging tax rate.
