Requested by sector associations and shared by most of the City Council, the decision comes to freeze the payment of the tourist tax until December of this year. With a resolution, the junta extends the suspension that had already been decided until the end of June, thus ensuring that the summer season is not burdened by the tax, especially in a phase of slow recovery of tourism in the city. As stated in the document launched by the council on the proposal of the councilor for the budget, Luigi Carmelo Della Greca, “The persistence of the state of emergency, the timing of the vaccination campaign and the economic crisis lead us to deem it necessary to adopt an additional extraordinary measure aimed at encouraging an effective and concrete relaunch of tourism during the third quarter of the year, coinciding with the summer period “. The payment of the tax, therefore, is also suspended because, as noted in the resolution, “in recent months we have witnessed the rapid spread of new and insidious variants of the virus and the low influx of tourists has caused serious difficulties for the accommodation facilities in the territory of the Municipality of Salerno “.
