City of Clinton; extend repeal date on restaurant tax.

HB 4012 extends the expiration date of a 2% restaurant sales tax in Clinton, Mississippi, from July 1, 2026, to July 1, 2030. The tax applies to restaurants within Clinton’s city limits and funds tourism promotion, parks, and recreation programs. It requires city officials to hold a voter election before implementation and mandates that collected revenue be tracked separately from general city funds. This extension ensures continued funding for local tourism and recreational projects beyond the original 2026 deadline.
