BILL NUMBER:S4162

Title of bill

An act to amend the tax law, in relation to authorizing the county of Tompkins to continue imposing an additional one percent sales tax

Purpose

To extend for two more years statutory authorization to Tompkins County to impose an additional one percent sales and compensating use tax.

Summary of provisions

Amends Section 1210 of the tax law.

Justification

Tompkins County has formally requested this authorization to impose the additional sales tax be extended for two years.
