Extends the authority of the city of Poughkeepsie to impose a hotel and motel tax for an additional 3 years

This bill extends the city of Poughkeepsie's authority to collect a tax on hotel and motel stays for an additional three years, allowing the tax to remain in effect until August 23, 2029. The legislation directly affects the city government and hospitality businesses operating within Poughkeepsie by maintaining their ability to levy this revenue-generating charge. The key provision amends existing state law to update the expiration date of the tax authorization, ensuring the city can continue using these funds without needing new legislation. The bill takes effect immediately upon passage and does not change the tax rate or collection process, only the duration of the city's legal authority to impose it.
