On Thursday, April 1 the Ontario County Board of Supervisors met for its regular monthly meeting. During the session, the Board held a public hearing regarding a proposed public law to limit the fees that can be charged by third-party delivery services and considered a Resolution to apply the County’s Occupancy Tax to facilities with three rooms or less. The proposed public law to limit third-party delivery service fees was brought forward to prevent potential price gouging during declared emergencies, such as the ongoing COVID-19 crisis. The proposal sought to limit fees charged by restaurants by such providers as Uber Eats, Grubhub, DoorDash, or similar services. Under the proposal, a “Declared Emergency” would exist when there was a disaster emergency declared by the Governor of the State of New York or the Chair of the Ontario County Board of Supervisors declares a State of Emergency. The law would limit delivery fees to 15% of the cost of the order and other fees to 5% of the cost of the order. The law only related to the fees charged restaurants and the proposal did not have any impact on charges assessed customers placing orders via third party delivery services.
