BILL NUMBER:S5764 TITLE OF BILL: An act to amend the real property tax law, in relation to the exemption of new multiple dwellings from local taxation; and to repeal certain provisions of such law relating thereto SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS: This legislation will restore the parameters of the 421-a real property tax program to pre-2007/08 changes JUSTIFICATION: Section 421-a of the Real Property Tax Law has provided tax benefits for construction of new residential buildings in the City of New York since 1971. Section 421-a benefits are available for up to 25 years depending upon the location of the multiple dwelling. It provides a period of full exemption followed by a phase-out to full taxation. As a result of changes to the 421-a program in 2007/08 applications for participation have dropped significantly, which has had an adverse economic impact in New York City. The continued shortage of affordable housing in the City of New York necessitates the extension of this essential tax exemption program that serves as an incentive for the development of new housing.
