	Florence County vs. Tourism Expenditure Review Committee (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		A county’s right to do so, however, is subject to two conditions: first, the county must have “a high concentration of tourism activity” (a term not defined in the statute) and second, a county may not utilize these accommodations tax revenues “as an additional source of revenue to provide services normally provided by the county.
		Contrary to the County’s contention otherwise, the TERC’s adoption of the $900,000 in state accommodations tax as the threshold for a county to have a “high concentration of tourism activity” is hardly arbitrary.
		The County asserts that this is a mitigating factor that the TERC should have considered when making its determination that the requirement of § 6-4-25(B) had not been met.
