Bill > S03498

This bill extends the authorization for Tioga County, New York, to impose an additional one percent sales and compensating use tax through November 30, 2027. Specifically, the bill amends an existing section of the tax law that allows Tioga County to levy supplemental sales taxes beyond the standard three percent rate. The proposed change updates the previous expiration date of November 30, 2025, to November 30, 2027, effectively giving the county two more years to continue collecting this additional sales tax. This type of local tax authorization is common in New York State, allowing counties to generate additional revenue by imposing a small percentage of extra sales tax on transactions within their jurisdiction. The bill will take effect immediately upon passage, ensuring a seamless continuation of the county's current tax collection authority.
