Norfolk council has deferred a proposed 4% accommodation tax on short-term stays, citing the need for staff to complete reports on a short-term rental bylaw and a municipal development corporation's business case.
The 5-4 vote follows a February 10 committee approval.
The tax, which could generate $704,000 annually, aims to fund tourism marketing and infrastructure.
Supporters say it offsets taxpayer costs for tourism-related services, while opponents demand a rental policy first.
Mayor Amy Martin warned the delay may kill the tax.
