Town board votes to extend hotel/motel occupancy tax for three years
Summary
The Town Board approved a Home Rule Request to extend the authority to impose a hotel and motel occupancy tax for an additional three years; the motion passed unanimously at the April 28 workshop meeting.
Supervisor Gil Piaquadio requested board approval of a Town of Newburgh Home Rule Request to amend the enabling statute so the town may continue imposing a hotel and motel occupancy tax for an additional three years. Councilman Paul Ruggiero moved to approve the extension; the board voted unanimously, 5–0, to forward the Home Rule Request as presented.
No substantive amendments or fiscal figures were presented at the meeting; the board approved the extension request as a procedural step to preserve the town’s authority to levy the occupancy tax for a further three-year period.
