They could provide a positive impetus for tourism, sport and urban development and contribute to a sense of unity in urban society. At the same time, the financial challenges of staging the event should not be underestimated. In view of the commitment already made to host the World Games, it is virtually impossible to withdraw, which is why viable financing models are required. Proportionate use of the revenue from the new accommodation tax is an obvious option, as it is borne by visitors to the city who also benefit from the international appeal of the event.    <br\/><br\/>Signed: Friedemann Kalmbach<br\/><br\/><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_et_pb_use_builder":"off","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"project_category":[234],"project_tag":[240],"class_list":["post-9420","project","type-project","status-publish","hentry","project_category-supplementary-motions","project_tag-submitted"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Use of the accommodation tax to finance the 2029 World Games - Freie W\u00e4hler | F\u00dcR Karlsruhe in the Karlsruhe City Council<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Unsere Anfragen und Antr\u00e4ge im Karlsruher Gemeinderat.
