Bill Summary
AN ACT to amend chapter 289 of the laws of 2023, amending the tax law relating to authorizing the town of Goshen to impose a hotel and motel tax, in relation to the effectiveness thereof
AI Summary
This bill extends the town of Goshen's existing authority to impose a hotel and motel tax by modifying a previous law passed in 2023. Specifically, the bill changes the expiration date of the tax authorization from 2 years to 4 years, which means the town will now have two additional years (for a total of four years) to collect a hotel and motel tax of up to five percent. This type of local tax is common for municipalities to generate revenue from visitors and tourists staying in local accommodations. The bill takes effect immediately upon passage, allowing the town to continue its current tax collection strategy for a longer period without interruption.
