This bill extends the existing authority of Cold Spring Village to collect a hotel and motel tax, allowing the village to continue this tax until July 21, 2027. It modifies a 2022 law (Chapter 433) by replacing a temporary "3 years after enactment" expiration with a specific end date. The change directly affects Cold Spring businesses operating hotels or motels and the village's ability to fund local services through this revenue source. The bill does not create a new tax but extends the current one's validity period. (Signed into law July 21, 2025, as Chapter 185.)

The "Private Activity Bond Allocation Act of 2025" establishes a new formula for distributing the statewide volume ceiling for certain tax-exempt private activity bonds. These bonds are used by state and local agencies, as well as other entities, for purposes such as housing, economic development, and job creation. The act divides the statewide ceiling into three main portions: a local agency set-aside based on population, a state agency set-aside, and a statewide bond reserve. This structure aims to provide an orderly and efficient process for allocating these bonds, which require an allocation to maintain their federal tax-exempt status.

The key mechanism updates the expiration date in existing tax law to extend the tax authority beyond the previous 2025 deadline.

This bill sets a maximum 16% annual interest rate and a minimum 2% annual interest rate on late payments for residential property taxes, replacing higher local rates.

This limits how much interest homeowners can be charged on overdue residential tax bills, ensuring rates stay within the 2%-16% range.
