NORWICH - The Chenango County Board of Supervisors approved a measure Monday to continue a longstanding 1 percent additional sales tax that will help fund the county correctional facility for the next three years.

The additional 1 percent tax, first enacted in 2002, applies to the sale of any goods and services, as well as accommodations in Chenango County. Initially set to expire in November of this year, the measure as approved Monday won’t lapse now until November, 2023.
