Bill > S07630

This bill extends the authority of Orange County, New York, to impose an additional sales and compensating use tax at a rate of three-quarters of one percent beyond its current expiration date. Specifically, the bill changes the end date of this tax authority from November 30, 2025, to November 30, 2027, effectively giving the county two more years to collect this supplemental sales tax. Furthermore, the bill stipulates that the net collections from this additional tax rate during the period from December 1, 2025, to November 30, 2027, will be paid directly to Orange County and can be used solely for county purposes. Notably, these tax collections will not be subject to any existing revenue distribution agreements, which means the county has more flexibility in how it can use these funds. The bill takes effect immediately upon passage, providing Orange County with continued fiscal flexibility to generate local revenue through this additional sales tax mechanism.
