The Accounting Division collects local taxes on liquor, lodging, and admission sales from Bloomington establishments. A portion of the proceeds are given to the Bloomington Minnesota Travel and Tourism and the Bloomington Port Authority to fund marketing and development efforts for the Bloomington hospitality industry.
Sales and tax totals should be reported on the Sales Tax Return form and submitted to the Accounting Division each month.
The City of Bloomington recently launched an online filing portal for Liquor Lodging and Admission Sales Taxes with OpenGov Tax and Revenue (formerly iGovServices). Please email llatax@BloomingtonMn.gov for details and signup information.
