 April 29, 2026
 ___________

 Introduced by M. of A. GRAY -- read once and referred to the Committee
 on Ways and Means

 AN ACT to amend the tax law, in relation to increasing the occupancy tax
 in the county of St. Lawrence

 The People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and Assem-
 bly, do enact as follows:

 1 Section 1. Section 1202-l of the tax law, as added by chapter 522 of
 2 the laws of 1991, is renumbered 1202-ll.
 3 § 2. Subdivision 1 of section 1202-ll of the tax law, as added by
 4 chapter 522 of the laws of 1991, and such section as renumbered by
 5 section one of this act, is amended to read as follows:
 6 (1) Notwithstanding any other provisions of law to the contrary, the
 7 county of St. Lawrence is hereby authorized and empowered to adopt and
 8 amend local laws imposing in such county a tax, in addition to any other
 9 tax authorized and imposed pursuant to this article, as the legislature
 10 has or would have the power and authority to impose upon persons occupy-
 11 ing rooms in hotels or motels in such county. For the purposes of this
 12 section, the term "hotel" shall mean a building or portion of it which
 13 is regularly used and kept open as such for the lodging of guests. The
 14 term "hotel" includes an apartment hotel, a motel or a boarding house,
 15 whether or not meals are served. Such tax shall be imposed at a rate or
 16 rates not to exceed [three] five percent of the per diem rental rate for
 17 each room whether such room is rented on a daily or longer basis.
 18 § 3. This act shall take effect immediately.

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