BILL NUMBER:S3033A

Title of bill

An act to amend the tax law, in relation to the imposition of an occupancy tax in the village of Mamaroneck; and providing for the repeal of such provisions upon expiration thereof

Purpose

To authorize the Village of Mamaroneck to enact a room occupancy tax not to exceed 3%.

Summary of provisions

The tax law is amended to add a new section 1202-x, to authorize the town/village of Mamaroneck to enact such a tax.

Justification

The town/village of Mamaroneck seeks the authority to impose a 3% daily room tax on any room in a hotel, motel, or similar place of public non-property. This tax is intended to raise revenues to support municipal expenses. The tax has been successful in the neighboring cities of New Rochelle, Rye, and White Plains. Chapter 381 of the Laws of 2010 grants similar authority to the Village of Rye Brook, which marks the first time such authority was granted to a municipality other than a city.

Legislative history

New Bill.

Fiscal implications

None to the state, but increased revenue for the Village of Mamaroneck.

Effective date

This act shall take effect immediately and shall expire and be deemed repealed three years after such date.
