What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Sevastopol's municipal boundaries were expanded to include Clark Lake and are situated within Door County. Since 2008, room tax collections from Sevastopol have been designated to Sturgeon Bay because Sevastopol lacked an established destination marketing organization, while the City had one.

Why it matters

Door County adopted a countywide room tax in 2008, and the tax rate for Sevastopol increased from 5.5 percent to 8 percent in 2022. This structure directs tax revenue from Sevastopol to Sturgeon Bay.
