California Court of Appeal

The City of Gilroy's Transient Occupancy Tax ordinance, Gilroy City Code section 25A.1, et. seq., which requires the proprietor of each hotel to collect, along with the rent, a 9 percent tax from each transient for the privilege of occupancy in the hotel, is not unconstitutionally vague, because it is clear what the ordinance as a whole prohibits, and it is surely valid in the vast majority of its intended applications.
