Bill > A04986

This bill extends the authorization for Greene County, New York, to impose an additional 1% sales and compensating use tax beyond the standard 3% rate. Specifically, the bill amends the existing tax law to change the expiration date of this additional tax authority from November 30, 2025, to November 30, 2027, effectively providing the county with two more years to continue levying this supplemental tax. Sales and compensating use taxes are local taxes applied to the sale of goods and services, with this particular provision allowing Greene County to collect an extra 1% on top of the standard state and local tax rates. The bill provides the county with continued flexibility in local tax collection and will take effect immediately upon passage.
