Aiken considers 1 percent hospitality tax to fund roads and growth
Aiken officials weigh a 1 percent hospitality tax to fund infrastructure, a downtown parking garage, business license relief, and enterprise capital reserves. Council would direct about 600000 yearly to business investment and 330000 to reserves, with a final May vote pending. The plan aims to lure newcomers like a Starbucks while supporting local ventures and a hotel rehab project.
