| Bill | Sales and use tax; entitlement to revenues from tourism projects. | Sales and use tax; entitlement to revenues from tourism projects. Entitles a major tourism project, defined in the bill, to the revenues generated by a two percent state sales and use tax on transactions taking place on its premises, to be used for debt service on gap financing for the project. The entitlement is subject to review and approval by the MEI Project Approval Commission. As defined in the bill, gap financing includes a developer's primary debt financing, as well as any refinancing thereof, if the entitlements to tax revenues are pledged as collateral for such primary debt financing. The bill provides that, to qualify for the revenues, the project must meet a deficiency identified in a local tourism plan approved by the Virginia Tourism Authority and the private developer and the locality in which the project is located must each contribute funds equal to the two percent sales and use tax contribution, which are also to be used for the gap financing payment. Current law allows certain tourism projects to qualify for revenues generated by a one percent state sales and use tax or a 1.5 percent state sales and use tax. The bill provides that a major tourism project is eligible for the increased revenues if it involves a new private capital investment of at least $500 million; will result in the creation of at least 500 net new jobs; and supports increased hotel occupancy, an increase in out-of-state visitors, and other factors of significant fiscal and economic impact. The bill contains technical amendments. | us/states/va | Virginia General Assembly | 2022 | HB 1308 | Virginia HB 1308 (2022) |
