Bill Summary

AN ACT to amend the administrative code of the city of New York, in relation to prohibiting a utility from charging customers an excise tax

AI Summary

This bill amends the administrative code of New York City to prohibit utilities from passing an excise tax onto their customers. Specifically, it states that any excise tax imposed on a utility, such as one that might be charged to a cooperative corporation that generates its own electricity, steam, refrigeration, or water for at least fifteen hundred apartments, must be paid by the utility itself and cannot be added as a separate charge on customer bills; instead, it will be considered part of the utility's operating costs. This change is intended to prevent customers from directly bearing the burden of this particular tax.
