HostReadyOperators of hotels (broadly defined to include any structure used for transient occupancy, including bed and breakfasts, rooming houses, and similar structures) must register with the tax administrator within 30 days of commencing business and obtain a Transient Occupancy Registration Certificate. A transient is defined as any person occupying space for 30 consecutive calendar days or less. Operators are required to collect an 8% occupancy tax from transients and remit it to the city quarterly.
