And I doubt that the average of approx $330/night pays for all of the costs associated with the entertainment at the 2 squares...so the additional money must come from the businesses. It does NOT come from resident's amenities fees!

The County Tourism Grant is funded from a 2% tax on Sumter County's rented rooms like hotel and motel facilities. The Tourism Grant is not paid for from Sumter County property taxes!
Everyone please read the above. It not only answers the original question about sound on web cams, but it also addresses one of the myths that will not die.
