The levy of an excise tax on transactions by which lodging by a hotel is or is to be furnished to transient guests pursuant to section 5739.02 and division (B) of section 5739.01 of the Revised Code does not prevent any of the following:
(A) A municipal corporation or township from levying an excise tax for any lawful purpose not to exceed three per cent on transactions by which lodging by a hotel is or is to be furnished to transient guests in addition to the tax levied by section 5739.02 of the Revised Code. If a municipal corporation or township repeals a tax imposed under division (A) of this section, and a county in which the municipal corporation or township has territory has a tax imposed under division (C) of section 5739.09 of the Revised Code in effect, the municipal corporation or township may not reimpose its tax as long as that county tax remains in effect. A municipal corporation or township in which a tax is levied under division (B)(2) of section 351.021 of the Revised Code may not increase the rate of its tax levied under division (A) of this section to any rate that would cause the total taxes levied under both of those divisions to exceed three per cent on any lodging transaction within the municipal corporation or township.
(B) A municipal corporation or a township from levying an additional excise tax not to exceed three per cent on such transactions pursuant to division (B) of section 5739.09 of the Revised Code. Such tax is in addition to any tax imposed under division (A) of this section.
(C) A county from levying an excise tax pursuant to division (A) of section 5739.09 of the Revised Code;
(D) A county from levying an excise tax not to exceed three per cent of such transactions pursuant to division (C) of section 5739.09 of the Revised Code. Such a tax is in addition to any tax imposed under division (C) of this section.
(E) A convention facilities authority, as defined in division (A) of section 351.01 of the Revised Code, from levying the excise taxes provided for in divisions (B) and (C) of section 351.021 of the Revised Code;
(F) A county from levying an excise tax not to exceed one and one-half per cent of such transactions pursuant to division (D) of section 5739.09 of the Revised Code. Such tax is in addition to any tax imposed under division (C) or (D) of this section.
(G) A county from levying an excise tax not to exceed one and one-half per cent of such transactions pursuant to division (E) of section 5739.09 of the Revised Code. Such a tax is in addition to any tax imposed under division (C), (D), or (F) of this section.
