Declare Results of Protest Hearing and Modify the Butte County Tourism Business Improvement District (TBID) Management District Plan - September 29, 2025 - 10:00 am - Public Hearing
At the request of Explore Butte County, the TBID owner's association, the Board of Supervisors approved resolution of intent to modify the Butte County TBID Management District Plan (District Plan) on May 13, 2025. The three proposed changes include: 1) remove the room count threshold to include all lodging businesses and short-term rentals located within the District; 2) increase the assessment to 2.5% on September 1, 2025, and to 3% on January 1, 2027; and 3) modify the term of the District Plan from November 30, 2030 to December 31, 2029. On May 19, 2025, a public notice was mailed to all businesses proposed to be assessed, beginning a mandatory 45-day period in which assessed business owners may protest the modifications.
Today's meeting allows the Board to declare the results of the protest hearing and consider the requested modifications to the District Plan. If protests were received from owners paying 50% or more of the assessments, no further proceedings to modify the District Plan shall be taken. If a majority protest is not received, Explore Butte County requests the Board consider each of the three resolutions separately and, if approved, adopt the resolutions and authorize Chair to sign.
