The City Attorney discussed the transient occupancy tax
which had been increased from, 4% to 5% by Ordinance No. 917,
adopted January 15, 1968, and effective immediately. It is
his opinion that the effective date cannot be waived,
although the operators of hotels and motels were not notified
of this increase at the time the Ordinance became effective
and, therefore, could not: collect the correct amount of
tax from the transient, as this tax is paid to the City
quarterly. However, the City Attorney recommended that
Ordinance 1/917 be amended to provide that, for the third
quarter of the fiscal year 1967--68 only, the operators
