A BILL

TO AMEND SECTION 53-1-150, AS AMENDED, CODE OF LAWS OF SOUTH CAROLINA, 1976, RELATING TO THE EXEMPTION OF CERTAIN COUNTIES FROM PROVISIONS OF LAW REGULATING ACTIVITIES ON SUNDAY, SO AS TO REDUCE THE REQUIRED AMOUNT OF ACCOMMODATIONS TAX REVENUES COLLECTED IN A COUNTY DURING A FISCAL YEAR WHICH EXEMPTS A COUNTY FROM THESE PROVISIONS OF LAW REGULATING ACTIVITIES ON SUNDAY.

Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the State of South Carolina:

SECTION    1.    Section 53-1-150(B) of the 1976 Code, as last amended by Act 134 of 1995, is further amended to read:

"(B)    The provisions of Chapter 1 of Title 53 do not apply to any county area, as defined in Section 6-4-5(1), which collects more than nine hundred thousand dollars in one fiscal year in revenues from the accommodations tax provided for in Section 12-36-2630(3) and imposed in Section 12-36-920(A). After a county area has collected more than nine hundred thousand dollars in one fiscal year in revenues from the accommodations tax provided for in Section 12-36-2630(3) and imposed in Section 12-36-920(A), the exclusion from the provisions of Chapter 1 of Title 53 will continue from year to year irrespective of whether revenue falls below nine hundred thousand dollars in subsequent years."

SECTION    2.    This act takes effect upon approval by the Governor.
