S T A T E O F N E W Y O R K ________________________________________________________________________ S. 1478 A. 1425 2011-2012 Regular Sessions S E N A T E - A S S E M B L Y January 7, 2011 ___________ IN SENATE -- Introduced by Sen. MONTGOMERY -- read twice and ordered printed, and when printed to be committed to the Committee on Cities IN ASSEMBLY -- Introduced by M. of A. ROBINSON -- read once and referred to the Committee on Cities AN ACT authorizing the city of New York to reconvey its interest in certain real property acquired by in rem tax foreclosure in the borough of Brooklyn to former owner Chester Wilkins, notwithstanding expiration of the two year period within which application may be made to the city to release its interest in property thus acquired; Block No. 1651, Lot No. 52 on tax map for the borough of Brooklyn THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND ASSEM- BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS: Section 1. Findings. On April 17, 1979, through a Brooklyn in rem tax foreclosure action, the city of New York acquired title to premises designated as lot 52 in tax block 1651, also known as 697A Jefferson Avenue, in the borough of Brooklyn, based on non-payment of taxes due to inadvertence by Chester Wilkins, the former owner of such property. Pursuant to sections 11-424 and 11-424.1 of the administrative code of the city of New York, the city may release its interest in property thus acquired if an application for such a release is filed with the city's department of citywide administrative services within two years of the date on which the city's deed is recorded and if such application is approved by the in rem foreclosure release board. Since that period has now elapsed, and pending the effectiveness of a chapter of the laws of 2011 authorizing the in rem foreclosure release board to authorize the release of property where an application for such release is made more than two years after the date of the city's acquisition thereof, state legislation is necessary to restore said property to the aforesaid former owner. In addition, since the New York city charter requires that the sale of city owned property be at public auction or by sealed bids EXPLANATION--Matter in ITALICS (underscored) is new; matter in brackets [ ] is old law to be omitted.
