Bill > A08074

This bill extends the authority of the town of Newburgh to impose a hotel and motel tax by two additional years, changing the expiration date from December 23, 2025, to December 23, 2027. The bill also makes a technical change by renumbering an existing section of the tax law (section 1202-gg is renumbered to 1202-gg-2). Hotel and motel taxes are local taxes that municipalities can charge on overnight accommodations, typically used to generate revenue for local government services or tourism-related expenses. The bill will take effect immediately upon passage, which is standard for local tax authorization extensions. This type of legislation allows the town of Newburgh to continue collecting a specific tax on hotel and motel stays for an additional two years beyond the previously established expiration date.
