AN ACT to amend the tax law, in relation to hotel  and  motel  taxes  in
  Seneca county

  THE  PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND ASSEM-
BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:

  Section 1. Subdivision 1 of section 1202-o of the tax law, as added by
chapter 784 of the laws of 1992, is amended to read as follows:
  (1) Notwithstanding any other provision of law to  the  contrary,  the
county  of  Seneca is hereby authorized and empowered to adopt and amend
local laws imposing in such county a tax, in addition to any  other  tax
authorized and imposed pursuant to this article, such as the legislature
has or would have the power and authority to impose upon persons occupy-
ing  hotel  or  motel  rooms  in  such  county. For the purposes of this
section, the term "hotel" or "motel" shall mean and include any facility
providing lodging on an overnight basis and shall include those  facili-
ties  designated and commonly known as "bed and breakfast" and "tourist"
facilities.
  The rates of such tax shall not exceed [three] FOUR percent of the per
diem rental rate for each room provided, however, that  such  tax  shall
not  be  applicable to a permanent resident of a hotel or motel. For the
purposes of this section, the term "permanent  resident"  shall  mean  a
person  occupying  any  room  or  rooms in a hotel or motel for at least
thirty consecutive days.
  S 2. This act shall take effect on the ninetieth day  after  it  shall
have become a law.



 EXPLANATION--Matter in ITALICS (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
                      [ ] is old law to be omitted.
