Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
This bill creates a sales and use tax exemption for the sale of ski lifts and the machines and equipment used exclusively to operate the ski lifts. Under current law, snowmaking and snow-grooming machines and equipment used exclusively and directly for snowmaking and snow grooming at ski hills, ski slopes, and ski trails is exempt from the sales and use tax.
