54-119 — Ordinance / Text Amendment in Lockhart, TX

The City of Lockhart is updating its hotel occupancy tax code (Chapter 54, Article IV) to require short-term rental listing platforms (like Airbnb) to collect and remit the 7% hotel occupancy tax directly to the city rather than individual property owners doing so. This addresses compliance gaps, as only 29 of an estimated 68 short-term rental properties are currently registered with the city, and the change is expected to significantly increase municipal tax revenue from short-term rentals.
