S 88 Vermont Senate · 2023-2024 Regular Session

An act relating to the charter of the Town of South Hero

This bill officially approves the Town of South Hero's charter and authorizes the town to collect a local option tax on meals and alcoholic beverages. The tax, which was already approved by town voters in March 2022, would add a 1% surcharge to these items. The revenue generated from this tax must be used specifically for municipal recreation and park facilities and town structures. Once passed, the bill takes effect immediately and adds the town's charter provisions to the state's legal code.
