Re: [Debconf-team] city taxes?

Indeed. That's usual in (all ?) Swiss cantons too. in our case, the "Règlement
d'exécution de la loi sur le tourisme" of Canton Neuchâtel [0] applies. See
Chapter 3. "Taxe de séjour". The taxes vary widely depending on the type of
accomodation and I can't know what amount is due by LeCamp.

We do. The contract links to their general terms and conditions [1] and their
prices sheet [2]. The latter mentions "Power and all taxes included", so these
"city taxes" are explicitely covered in the prices agreed as part of the
contract.

P.S. On an unrelated matter (and I'm mentioning it for sake of transparency),
note that we explictely agreed on amending the "Power included" statement of
the prices sheet with specific conditions in the contract that allows LeCamp
to bill us for additional energy. This is budgeted, of course.
