Bill > S06336

This bill extends the authorization for Genesee County to impose a county recording tax on mortgages on real property until November 1, 2027. Specifically, the legislation amends a previous law from 2004 that originally granted the county the ability to levy this tax, changing the expiration date from November 1, 2025 to November 1, 2027. A county recording tax is a fee charged by a county when certain documents, in this case mortgages, are officially recorded with the county clerk's office. By extending the authorization, the county will continue to have the legal ability to collect this tax for an additional two years beyond the previous expiration date. The bill takes effect immediately upon becoming law, ensuring that the county can continue to collect this tax without interruption.
