BILL NUMBER: S7093 TITLE OF BILL : An act to amend the tax law, in relation to authorizing the county of Fulton to establish hotel and motel taxes PURPOSE : To give Fulton County the same authority that most other counties already have to enact a local law establishing an occupancy tax on hotel or motel rooms. SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS : The bill would add a new Section 1202-dd to the Tax Law to authorize Fulton County to adopt a local law which imposes a tax, not to exceed 4% of the per diem rental rate, on persons occupying hotel or motel rooms in such county. Revenues from this tax will be allocated for the promotion of tourism development, economic development and other directly related and supporting activities. Each enactment of such a local law may provide for the imposition of the tax for a period of time no longer than three years.
