The proposed bill, General Assembly Proposed Bill No. 739, seeks to amend chapter 219 of the general statutes regarding the distribution of sales and use taxes on meals sold by eating establishments, caterers, or grocery stores. Specifically, the bill introduces an additional one per cent sales and use tax on these meals, which will be distributed to the municipalities in which the revenue was generated. This change aims to ensure that local municipalities benefit directly from the tax revenue generated by meals sold within their jurisdictions. The bill does not specify any deletions from current law, focusing instead on the new provisions for tax distribution. The intent behind this legislation is to provide financial support to municipalities, thereby enhancing local funding and resources derived from the sales and use taxes on meals.
