Occupation tax in New Mexico remains in effect
Santa Fe July 11 AP The occupation or license tax continues in New Mexico though the new rates are invalid per the Supreme Court ruling on the chain store tax. The former law stays in force with a valid rate structure and county or municipal powers to levy taxes. The 1897 statute sets fees from 5 to 150 dollars based on business volume and directs half the collection to the county school fund and the other half to the county general fund. Municipalities may distribute funds as allowed by the 1915 law, and cities lacking ordinances were expected to enact them soon.
