BILL NUMBER:S4454
Title of bill
An act to amend the tax law, in relation to extending the expiration of the provisions authorizing the county of Allegany to impose an additional one and one-half percent sales and compensating use taxes
Purpose
Extends expiration of authorization of county of Allegany to impose an additional 1 1/2 percent sales and compensating use taxes until November 30, 2015.
Summary of provisions
Section 1 amends Section 1210 of the Tax Law by changing the expiration date of this provision from November 30, 2013 to November 30, 2015.
Section 2 provides an immediate effective date.
Justification
This two-year extension of the additional 1 1/2 percent sales and use tax has been requested by a majority vote of the Allegany County Legislature. They feel it is necessary in order to prevent a substantial increase in real property taxes that would burden property owners, particularly the senior population of Allegany County which live mainly on fixed incomes.
