SUMMARY AS INTRODUCED:

License taxes; additional two percent tax on gross receipts of businesses severing gases. Provides an additional license tax on every person engaging in the business of severing gases from the earth. A county or city may impose this additional tax at a rate not to exceed two percent of the gross receipts from the sale of gases severed within the county or city. Revenues from this tax shall be used exclusively for constructing new and improved water systems and lines in areas with natural water supplies that are insufficient from the standpoint of quality or quantity. Current law allows counties and cities to levy license taxes on businesses severing gases at a rate not to exceed three percent. This bill would increase that rate to a total of five percent.
