AI Summary
This bill extends the repeal date for a restaurant tax in the City of Southaven, Mississippi, from July 1, 2026, to July 1, 2030. This tax, authorized by previous laws, allows the city's governing authorities (the Mayor and Board of Aldermen) to impose a tax of up to one percent on the gross proceeds from the sales of beverages and prepared food at restaurants within the city, with the funds dedicated to promoting tourism, parks, and recreation. The bill amends existing law by changing the specific date when this authorization will expire, meaning the city can continue to collect this tax for an additional four years.
