option sales and use tax is imposed and levied for the benefit of
the City at a total rate of 2% upon the same transactions that are
sourced under the provisions of applicable Nebraska statutes within
the corporate limits of the City, as constituted from time to time,
on which the State of Nebraska is authorized to impose a tax pursuant
to the Nebraska Revenue Act of 1967, as amended from time to time,
which two-percent tax shall be comprised of the following components:
(1)
One
and one-half percent City sales and use tax originally imposed on
or about April 1, 1989, and continuing in perpetuity; and
(2)
Additional
1/2% City sales and use tax effective January 1, 2017, or as otherwise
required by Neb. R.R.S. § 77- 27,143, and continuing for
a period of 10 years after said effective date, unless bonds are issued
with some or all of the additional sales and use tax revenues from
this additional tax are pledged for repayment of said bonds, in which
case the increased sales and use tax rate and additional tax of an
additional 1/2% will remain in effect, and the additional revenues
will be collected until such bonds and any refunding bonds are repaid
in full.
