纽约和北约克郡市长David Skaith正在推行一项每人2英镑的建议,每晚对游客征收2英镑的税,每年可产生高达5 200万英镑的税收,以支持地方服务和旅游基础设施。 York and North Yorkshire Mayor David Skaith is pursuing a proposed £2 per person, per night visitor levy, which could generate up to £52 million annually to support local services and tourism infrastructure. 这项计划得到该地区政策实验室研究的支持,旨在减轻来自高访客人数的压力,同时不增加居民费用。 The plan, backed by research from the region’s Policy Lab, aims to ease pressures from high visitor numbers without raising costs for residents. Skaith与整个区域的旅游和接待企业举行了100多次会议,并在可能举行的区域协商之前审查反馈意见。 Skaith has held over 100 meetings with tourism and hospitality businesses across the region and is reviewing feedback ahead of a potential regional consultation. 联合王国政府正在结束关于这类征税的全国协商,如果获得批准,市长将在执行之前主持一次区域协商。 The UK government is closing its national consultation on such levies, and if approved, the mayor would lead a regional consultation before implementation. 北约郡理事会不能阻碍这一决定,对旅游业和小企业的潜在影响仍然感到关切。 North Yorkshire Council cannot block the decision, and concerns remain over potential impacts on tourism and small businesses.
