Bill Summary
AN ACT to amend chapter 304 of the laws of 2023, amending the tax law relating to authorizing an occupancy tax in the town of Skaneateles, in relation to extending the effectiveness thereof
AI Summary
This bill extends the existing authorization for an occupancy tax in the town of Skaneateles by modifying a previous law from 2023. Specifically, the bill changes the expiration date of the tax authorization from December 31, 2025, to December 31, 2027. An occupancy tax is a fee charged to guests staying in hotels, motels, and other short-term lodging establishments, which provides additional revenue for local government services. By extending the authorization for two more years, the town of Skaneateles will continue to be able to collect this tax to support local infrastructure, tourism promotion, or other municipal needs. The bill takes effect immediately upon passage, ensuring that the tax collection can continue without interruption beyond the previous sunset date.
