Bill > A05380

This bill extends the authorization for Monroe County, New York, to impose an additional one percent sales and compensating use tax until November 30, 2027, which was previously set to expire in 2025. The bill specifies how the revenues from this additional tax will be distributed among various local entities: 5% will go to school districts outside Rochester, 3% to towns within the county, 1.25% to villages within the county, and 90.75% to the city of Rochester and Monroe County. The distribution to school districts will be based on the number of enrolled public school pupils, while town and village allocations will be determined by population ratios. The bill also ensures that the additional tax collections will not be considered when calculating future sales tax increases or decreases, and includes a severability clause to protect the rest of the legislation if any part is found invalid by a court.
