Bill > A07605

This bill extends the existing authorization for Montgomery County, New York, to impose an additional one percent sales and compensating use tax beyond its current expiration date. Specifically, the bill amends the tax law to change the end date of this tax authorization from November 30, 2025, to November 30, 2027, effectively providing the county with two more years to continue collecting this supplemental sales tax. Sales and compensating use taxes are local taxes applied to the sale of goods and services, with this particular provision allowing Montgomery County to levy an extra one percent tax on top of the standard three percent rate. The bill is straightforward in its purpose, simply updating the sunset date for the county's existing tax authority, and includes a provision for immediate implementation upon passage. This type of legislative action is common for local jurisdictions seeking to maintain a consistent revenue stream for municipal services and operations.
