Are city or county sales taxes used to finance wind and solar systems?
The additional taxes you ask about are modifications of the state sales tax in a city or county with those funds going to that local entity. The Minnesota Department of Revenue is the lead agency related to the collection of sales and use taxes. Visit the Revenue Department website at: http://taxes.state.mn.us/sales/pages/index.aspx The Minnesota Statute that addresses energy-related taxes is Statute 216C.06.
