The proposed bill, General Assembly Proposed Bill No. 187, 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, with the stipulation that the revenue generated from this tax be distributed to the municipalities in which the revenue was generated. The purpose of this legislation is to ensure that local municipalities benefit directly from the additional tax revenue collected from meals sold within their jurisdictions. This change aims to provide financial support to local governments, potentially enhancing their ability to fund services and initiatives that benefit the community. There are no deletions from current law mentioned in the text of the bill.
