Extends the village of Woodbury's authority to impose a hotel and motel tax
S 708 extends the Village of Woodbury's existing authority to collect a hotel and motel tax for two additional years, allowing the village to continue this revenue source beyond its current expiration. The bill amends the 2023 law (Chapter 291) by changing the tax authority's expiration date from 4 years to an immediate, extended period. This directly affects Woodbury's local government, which uses the tax revenue for community projects, and hotels/motels operating within the village. The change is purely procedural, maintaining the current tax structure without altering rates or eligibility.
