The New York State Senate has passed a bill to make permanent the state’s sales tax exemption on general aviation aircraft maintenance.
A story by Sarah Brown at AOPA.org says:
“The original enactment of this sales-tax exemption in 2004 led to an increase in economic activity and employment in the aviation sector and has allowed New York to stay competitive with neighboring states,” said AOPA Northeast Regional Representative Craig Dotlo. “Extending it will allow GA to continue to grow as a vital sector of the economy in New York and benefit the aircraft owners who depend on convenient access to these services.”
