Raleigh diners may pay restaurant tax

The law extends Raleigh’s authority to levy a restaurant tax through July 1, 2030. The town can set the tax at up to 2% of restaurant sales only after at least 60% of qualified electors voting approve it in an election. If imposed, restaurant operators collect the tax from customers when practical, and the state revenue department handles collection. The money must support tourism, parks, and recreation in Raleigh; schools, hospitals, and nursing or convalescent homes are excluded from the restaurant definition.
