Council webinar on planned Visitor Levy Scheme in Highlands
The last community webinar session of the Highland Council’s online engagement events into the proposed Visitor Levy Scheme takes place later today.
It’s set for 6pm and will run for an hour here
Highland Council convener Bill Lobban said: “I want to thank everyone who has attended the events in person and on-line.
“If anyone has been unable to attend any of the sessions, there is still time to feed your views into our consultation as it runs up until March 31.
“In addition to the public events, we’ve taken part in several sessions specifically for the business community.
“As well as getting feedback from businesses and the tourism sector, it is important that we gather as many views from individuals, community groups and businesses as possible to make the consultation inclusive and ensuring that it fairly and accurately captures opinion and feedback from across all communities.”
As well as a link to the consultation portal the information on the council’s website includes helpful FAQs that have been updated with questions raised at the public engagement sessions.
Councillor Lobban added: “All comments received from the on-line consultation and public engagement sessions will be analysed and included as part of a report that will be presented to council at a future date.
“I therefore encourage anyone who has not yet filled in the on-line consultation, to do so before the deadline.”
A report will be considered at a future meeting of Highland Council which will set out the findings of the consultation
