Bracebridge asks for input on new accommodation tax administration

Wednesday, 14 January 2026 08:50

The new organization will direct spending to boost tourism

Bracebridge residents and businesses are being asked to weigh in on a plan to boost tourism in town.

The municipality is considering creating a Municipal Services Corporation, tentatively called the Bracebridge Tourism Development Corporation, to manage revenue from the Municipal Accommodation Tax.

The tax, applied to hotels, motels, and short-term rentals, funds tourism promotion and infrastructure without raising local taxes.

The proposed corporation would be town-owned, with a council-appointed board to ensure accountability.

Community feedback is being sought through an online survey open until January 30.

More details and the survey can be found at engagebracebridge.ca
