Bill > S07127

This bill extends the authorization for Hamilton County, New York, to impose an additional one percent sales and compensating use tax until November 30, 2027. Specifically, the legislation amends an existing section of the tax law by changing the expiration date of the county's ability to levy this extra sales tax from November 30, 2025, to November 30, 2027. Sales taxes are additional percentage charges applied to the sale of goods and services, and compensating use taxes are similar taxes applied when sales tax has not been paid on purchases made outside the jurisdiction. By extending this authorization, the bill allows Hamilton County to continue collecting this supplemental tax revenue for an additional two years beyond the previous expiration date, which can help support local government operations and services. The bill takes effect immediately upon becoming law.
