U.S. Rep. Doug Collins, R-Gainesville, introduced a bill Wednesday that would cap fees marinas operating on Army Corps of Engineers lakes have to pay. The Marina Operator Tax Obligation Relief Act establishes a nationwide standard to lower to 1 percent the rate charged on gross sales on specific services for all marina facilities in corps-regulated areas. The rate is currently upward of 4.6 percent in Georgia.
