A 6232 New York Assembly · 2025 Regular Session

Relates to the imposition of sales tax in the county of Orleans

This bill extends Orleans County's authority to impose an additional 1% sales tax on top of the existing 3% rate, now authorized through November 30, 2027 (previously set to expire in 2025). It directly affects residents and businesses in Orleans County, where this local tax is collected. The key provision amends a tax law section to adjust the expiration date of the county's existing tax authority. The bill was signed into law on August 7, 2025 (Chapter 219), making the extension effective immediately.
