195.05 TAX COLLECTION; EXEMPTIONS.
   (a)    The transient guest tax imposed by this chapter shall be paid by the transient guest to the vendor, and each vendor shall collect from the transient guest the full and exact amount of the tax payable on each taxable lodging. The tax required to be collected under the chapter shall be deemed to be held in trust by the vendor until paid to the Administrator, as provided in Section 195.08. If for any reason the tax due is not paid to the vendor, the Administrator may require that the tax be paid directly to the Administrator.
   (b)    No exemption shall be granted except on a claim therefore made at the time rent is collected and under penalty of perjury on a form prescribed by the Administrator.
