Bill > S01076

This bill extends the authorization for St. Lawrence County to impose an additional one percent sales and compensating use tax until November 30th, 2027. Specifically, the bill amends an existing section of New York tax law to change the expiration date of the county's current tax authorization from November 30th, 2025 to November 30th, 2027. Sales tax is a consumption tax levied on the sale of goods and services, and compensating use tax is typically applied to goods purchased out-of-state but used within the state. By extending this authorization, the county will continue to have the ability to collect this additional one percent tax, which can provide important local revenue for county services and infrastructure. The bill takes effect immediately upon passage, ensuring a seamless continuation of the county's existing tax structure.
