The Dunwoody City Council will consider on first read approving an ordinance to raise its hotel/motel tax from 5 percent to 8 percent at its Monday, Nov. 13 meeting along with a list of proposed trails and parks projects to use with the new revenue. The meeting is at 6 p.m. at City Hall, 41 Perimeter Center East.
The city will also hold a public meeting on Wednesday, Nov. 15, at 6 p.m. at City Hall for residents to learn more about the proposed projects.
The General Assembly approved the legislation earlier this year granting Dunwoody the authority to raise the hotel motel tax.
