BILL NUMBER:S3070 TITLE OF BILL: An act to amend the tax law, in relation to the sales tax on meals served to laborers at farm labor camp commissaries PURPOSE: Exempts meals served at farm camp commissaries from State sales tax. SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS: This bill creates a new subparagraph (C) to Paragraph (ii) of subdivision (d) of Section 1105 of the Tax Law which includes meals served in labor camp commissaries to the list of tax exempt prepared meals found in the Tax Law. JUSTIFICATION: Farm labor camp commissaries providing meals for workers are operated by fruit and vegetable farmers during seasonal harvests. Farmers operating these commissaries charge a minimal amount for the meals but are required to charge a sales tax because they are prepared meals, as in a restaurant. However, despite the limited amount of tax collected, the time and paperwork burden for reporting the taxes is significant.
