The commission did not change the admission tax, but it will examine whether the threshold, collection process, and effects on local organizations should be revised. Staff will request the 2025 admission tax report and update project-grant language to clarify that grants cannot be used to pay the tax. Commissioners also discussed a possible July 4 community picnic and a donated painting that will be displayed at City Hall.
