Purpose, from the sponsor's memo

The bill would extend the authority of Genesee County, acting through its local legislative body, to adopt a local law imposing a mortgage recording tax of 25 cents for each $100 of real property secured by a mortgage. The Genesee County Legislature has passed a resolution requesting exten- sion of its authority to charge a county mortgage recording tax. The tax is collected by the county at the same time as the state mortgage recording taxes are. All revenue from the county tax, after deducting expenses of mortgage recording offices, goes to the general fund of Genesee County for use as the County Legislature approves.

The sponsor's argument
