Analyzed Economic Effects

2 provisions identified: 1 benefits, 1 costs, 0 mixed.

Putnam towns and villages get infrastructure money

When Putnam County charges the extra 1% tax, it must share one-ninth of that tax’s net collections with towns and villages. This rule covers any period the tax is charged from September 1, 2007, through November 30, 2027. Shares are based on each town’s and village’s population in the latest federal census taken every ten years. Each town and village must receive at least $50,000 annually. The money must fund local infrastructure projects and capital improvements, not direct household payments.

Putnam County’s extra sales tax extended

The law extends Putnam County’s authority to charge an extra 1% sales and use tax through November 30, 2027. This is added to the county’s base 3% rate. The county must adopt a local law, ordinance, or resolution to impose the extra tax. It applies only to taxable purchases and uses covered by the tax. The law takes effect immediately.
