Township tax

[C1erArt]

The township BM is in is considering an amusement tax. I know Whitewater Challengers pays a 10% amusement tax on their Lehigh River rafting operations. Pocono Raceway pays a tax too.

Township would make bank if they got 10% from Blue.  What a world we live in that all of a sudden the township wants some extra coin from someone, and can just impose some sort of tax.  Whats the reasoning for the considered tax?

They can just pass it on to the customer.  I am so fortunate in my industry there’s no sales tax.

I hope there's a clause in there that the township clears the fucking roads next pow day.

I can’t believe barb green is still involved. So much for retirement. $50,000 for an operation the size of blue mountain is nothing. My tiny business has extra expenses almost that amount all the time.

I'm excited for the rain this winter. It will be really good for the snow making retention ponds
