Tourists will pay around 50% of the sales tax.
The one-penny will continue to be split four ways:
The Osceola School District will receive 25% of the revenue.
The remaining 75% will be split between City of Kissimmee, City of St. Cloud, and Osceola County based on population, which is about 50% to the County and the remaining 25% split between the two Cities.
Each government will participate in a joint oversight committee on how the revenues are spent.
