Lagoa Council may well decide against the new Algarve Tourist Tax, joining Silves council in voting against the controversial measure when it comes up for debate in their Council Assemblies.
The Mayor of Lagoa, Francisco Martins, voted in favour of the tax at a key meeting of AMAL, the Algarve mayors’ association, but he is not convinced that the tax will receive a positive vote in Lagoa when it is debated and voted on next year.
