This measure increases San Mateo's transient occupancy tax on hotel and lodging guests from 12 percent to 15.5 percent to fund city services including street repair, parks, emergency preparedness, and police response. The tax increase is estimated to generate $3.6 million annually and remains in effect until ended by voters.
