BILL NUMBER:A8717 TITLE OF BILL: An act to amend the tax law, in relation to providing certain school bus operators with a refund or credit of sales and compensating use taxes on the purchase of school buses and equipment and fuel used in the operation of a school bus PURPOSE OR GENERAL IDEA OF BILL: This bill seeks to provide private school bus operators with an incen- tive to switch their fleets to new cleaner fuel buses as well as ease the escalating tax burden on the school property tax payers where these companies provide their services. SUMMARY OF SPECIFIC PROVISIONS: Amends section 1119 of the tax law to provide for the phasing in of a refund or credit from state sales and use tax on the sale or use by a school bus operator of any school bus (used for the transportation of students to and from school or school related events) and of parts, equipment, lubricants, motor fuel, maintenance, servicing and repairs. This bill would begin the phasing in of these credits on September 1, 2010. JUSTIFICATION: In recent years, school bus contractors have been hit with enormous increases in costs associated with new clean-fuel school bus regu- lations, rising insurance premiums, various state and federal mandates
