HELP KEEP THE JOBS AND SMALL BUISNESS ALIVE IN DOUGLAS COUNTY

** HELP KEEP THE JOBS AND SMALL BUSINESSES ALIVE IN DOUGLAS COUNTY
------------------------------------------------------------
Let's Get Started (https://chng.it/DLrF2vVjq6?utm_source=3DLuxevaca&utm_ca=
mpaign=3Dd472036fa3-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2023_10_16_01_15_COPY_01&utm_medium=3De=

**
Do not sign the new petition to ban short-term rentals. It will cut 150-20=
0 million in local small business spending and reduce the Douglas County t=
axes by up to 6 million dollars and they will raise your property tax to m=
ake up the difference. Get the facts and don't sign a petition that will i=
ncrease your taxes !!!!
------------------------------------------------------------

Douglas County is working once again to kill the economy.
The Pandemic put millions of small businesses to an existential test. As a=
 result=2C We face today the threat of losing all We had worked for.
Lake Tahoe numbers show that 80% of Small business owners rely on Tourism=
 to survive. So not only to keep the economy going=2C we can have better s=
ervices=2C quality workers=2C and better benefits for our first responders=
=2C doctors=2C teachers=2C and social workers.
There is no single industry that tourism doesn't touch. A BAN on VHRS in D=
ouglas County means closing SMALL BUSINESSES!!!!!
Study shows that close to 150-200 million dollars in local spending will b=
e out the door. We service families that come to rent homes. They eat in r=
estaurants=2C buy groceries=2C go to Casinos=2C invest in equipment=2C go=
 to the store=2C rent cars=2C use the local hair salon=2C buy souvenirs=2C=
 etc. It will also put hundreds to thousands of local families out of work=
=2E Not to mention the funding that will be lost to Parks and Rec=2C Road im=
provements=2C Snow removal=2C and the Visitors Authority that helped creat=
e the Tahoe Blue Events Center. The VHRs paid for the center! Only to not=
 get the benefit from it? The assets of Douglas County improved 5.5 millio=
n do to TOT. These funds help improve the County
According to a U.S. Small Business Administration report=2C they employ al=
most half of all American workers. In addition=2C small Businesses represe=
nt 45% of the Economy of the US.
Nominal small business GDP measured $5.9 trillion in 2019. The three large=
st small business sectors contributing to it were (1) the real estate and=
 rental and leasing industry; (2) wholesale and retail trade; and (3) the=
 manufacturing and restaurants=2C local shops=2C and coffee shops
We would appreciate your support against the vote to eliminate 600 rentals=
 that will eliminate 150-200  million dollars from local spending.

Please share this petition so We can prove to the local government that th=
e small fraction of people who want quiet at night and no traffic will hav=
e to live in a ghost town with no services at all.

The average small business employee earned in Lake Tahoe $45=2C857 in 2019=
=2E The larger the business=2C the higher the average employee pay. The smal=
lest companies (those with 1-4 employees) are an exception but make good p=
aying jobs=2C so We can afford to live here. Please help save the jobs and=
 small local small businesses in Douglas County !!! Dont support the measu=
re!!!

** Do not sign the ban on the VHR petition your taxes will go up and local=
 small businesses will suffer!

The Pandemic put millions of small businesses to an existential test. As a=
 result=2C We face today the threat of losing all We had worked for.&nbsp;=
<br>
Lake Tahoe numbers show that 80% of Small business owners rely on Tourism=
 to survive. So not only to keep the economy going=2C we can have better s=
ervices=2C quality workers=2C and better benefits for our first responders=
=2C doctors=2C teachers=2C and social workers.&nbsp;<br>
There is no single industry that tourism doesn't touch. A BAN on VHRS in D=
ouglas County means closing SMALL BUSINESSES!!!!!<br>
Study shows that close to 150-200 million dollars in local spending will b=
e out the door. We service families that come to rent homes. They eat in r=
estaurants=2C buy groceries=2C go to Casinos=2C invest in equipment=2C go=
 to the store=2C rent cars=2C use the local hair salon=2C buy souvenirs=2C=
 etc. It will also put hundreds to thousands of local families out of work=
=2E Not to mention the funding that will be lost to Parks and Rec=2C Road im=
provements=2C Snow removal=2C and the Visitors Authority that helped creat=
e the Tahoe Blue Events Center. The VHRs paid for the center! Only to not=
 get the benefit from it? The assets of Douglas County improved 5.5 millio=
n do to TOT. These funds help improve the County&nbsp;<br>
According to a U.S. Small Business Administration report=2C they employ al=
most half of all American workers. In addition=2C small Businesses represe=
nt 45% of the Economy of the US.<br>
Nominal small business GDP measured $5.9 trillion in 2019. The three large=
st small business sectors contributing to it were (1) the real estate and=
 rental and leasing industry; (2) wholesale and retail trade; and (3) the=
 manufacturing and restaurants=2C local shops=2C and coffee shops<br>
We would appreciate your support against the vote to eliminate 600 rentals=
 that will eliminate 150-200&nbsp; million dollars from local spending.&nb=
