SB 775 - This act removes the prohibition on the use of
funds from a tourism sales tax, at the present time, which only
applies to the cities of Sikeston and Miner. Currently, these
two cities may collect a tourism sales tax, but may only use the
money for marketing and promotional purposes. Other cities that
collect this tax may use the money for construction, maintenance
and operation of convention and tourism facilities, as well as
for marketing and promotional purposes.
