In 2020, the Montgomery County Convention Facilities Authority, the entity which owns the Dayton Convention Center (DCC), approved imposing a new 3% tax on hotel and motel stays in Montgomery County to renovate the nearly 50-year-old facility. These countywide lodging taxes will help pay for millions of dollars in renovations to modernize and update the convention center and retain a management company to manage its day-to-day operations.
