The Highland Council’s consultation on the proposed Visitor Levy Scheme is still open, with the final community webinar scheduled for 19 March from 18:00 to 19:00.
This online session is a last opportunity for residents, businesses, and community groups to engage directly and share their views.
Councillor Bill Lobban, Convener of The Highland Council, has expressed gratitude to those who have already taken part, both in person and online.
He emphasised that there is still time for anyone who has not yet contributed to have their say before the consultation closes on 31 March.
Beyond public events, the Council has engaged extensively with businesses and the tourism sector to ensure all perspectives are captured.
The goal is to create an inclusive and well-rounded consultation that accurately reflects the views of Highland communities.
The consultation portal remains open, providing an easy way to submit feedback.
The Council’s website also features an updated FAQ section addressing questions raised during engagement sessions.
Councillor Lobban highlighted that all responses will be analysed and compiled into a report for future consideration by The Highland Council.
He encouraged anyone who has not yet participated to take this final chance to share their opinions before the deadline.
A report on the consultation’s findings will be reviewed at a forthcoming Council meeting.
For those looking to take part in the final webinar or to submit feedback online, all relevant links and information can be found at https://www.highland.gov.uk/visitorlevyconsultation
This is a crucial moment for Highland residents and businesses to ensure their voices are heard on a matter that could shape the region’s future tourism landscape.
