Possible 2% tax on Brandon dining

The law extends Brandon’s authority to impose a 2% tax on prepared food and drinks sold by restaurants and bars. The tax does not start automatically: the city’s mayor and Board of Aldermen must set it by resolution and call a referendum, and at least 60% of voters who vote must approve. If imposed, the tax is added to other taxes, and the money must fund tourism, parks, and recreation. The city can end the tax by resolution. The authority ends July 1, 2032.
