Summary: S 6701 — Extends the Village of Mamaroneck Occupancy Tax for Two Years

Overview

S 6701 is a New York Senate bill titled “Extends the village of Mamaroneck occupancy tax for two years.” The bill proposes to extend the village’s authority to levy or maintain an occupancy (hotel/m lodging) tax for an additional two years. The primary sponsor is Shelley Mayer.

Purpose and Intent

  • To authorize a two-year extension of the village of Mamaroneck’s occupancy tax.
  • The extension is intended to continue the revenue stream that supports local village programs and services, typically funded through occupancy tax collections on short-term lodging.

Key Provisions (as described by the bill’s title and status)

  • Extend the existing occupancy tax authority for the Village of Mamaroneck by two years.
  • The specific details (e.g., applicable tax rate, eligible lodging types, administrative requirements) would be defined in the enacted text or any substituted/companion version.
  • The bill currently has been substituted by A7378, indicating that the companion Assembly measure (A 7378) carries the substantive language in place of the Senate version.

Affected Parties and Impacts

  • Primary locality: Village of Mamaroneck, Westchester County.
  • Directly affected stakeholders: Local lodging establishments (hotels, motels, bed-and-breakfasts, and other short-term rental properties) that collect occupancy taxes from guests.
  • Indirectly affected: Village residents and visitors, since occupancy tax revenue typically funds local services such as tourism promotion, infrastructure, and municipal operations.

Procedural Timeline and Status

  • Referred to Committee: Investigations and Government Operations (March 20, 2025).
  • 1st Report Calendar: April 29, 2025.

  • Advanced to Third Reading: May 1, 2025.
  • Substituted by A7378: May 27, 2025 (the Senate bill S 6701 has been substituted/rolled into the companion Assembly measure A7378).
  • Related/Companion: A 7378 (companion bill in the Assembly).

Additional Context

  • The substitution indicates that the substantive provisions are now embodied in the companion Assembly bill (A7378). To view the exact text and any fiscal notes, one should review A7378 and any accompanying analyses.
