                                BILL NUMBER:S1835

TITLE OF BILL:  An act to amend the real property tax law, in relation
to exemption from taxation of structures and buildings essential to
the operation of agricultural and horticultural lands

PURPOSE OR GENERAL IDEA OF BILL:

This bill recognizes the contributions of commercial equine operations
to agriculture in New York State by providing these operations with
eligibility for the current ten-year real property tax exemption for
indoor riding arenas, as part of structures and buildings essential to
the operation of agricultural and horticultural lands.

SUMMARY OF SPECIFIC PROVISIONS:

Section 1 amends Subdivisions 2 and 8 of § 483 of the Real Property
Tax Law to expand the definition of "structures and buildings" to
include commercial equine operations, as defined in section 301 of the
Agriculture and Markets Law. This section also expand the term
"agricultural and horticultural" to include commercial equine
operations, as defined in section 301 of the Agricultural and Markets
Law. Section 2 is the effective date.

JUSTIFICATION:

Commercial equine operations already have access to agricultural
district protections and agricultural assessment tax relief if they
consist of at least seven acres, stable ten horses regardless of
ownership and gross $10,000. This legislation would further extend
benefits, already enjoyed by all other types of farms, to these
operations. According to the National Agricultural Statistical
Service's (NASS) Equine Survey from 2005, there are approximately
200,000 horses in New York, with a value of $1.83 billion. Over-all,
total equine-related assets, held by owners, are valued at
approximately $10 billion. Total annual revenue to the New York
economy from equine businesses is approximately $450 million annually.
A large portion of this total comes from revenues generated by
providing equine services, such as boarding, trail riding, riding
lessons, training and therapeutic riding. It is essential that the
same tax exemptions are afforded to commercial equine operation as
granted to structures and buildings essential to the operation of
agricultural and horticultural lands.

PRIOR LEGISLATIVE HISTORY:

2013-2014: S.4261/ A.6501

FISCAL IMPLICATIONS:

Minimal.

EFFECTIVE DATE:

This act will take effect immediately.

TITLE OF BILL:  An act to amend the real property tax law, in relation
to exemption from taxation of structures and buildings essential to
the operation of agricultural and horticultural lands

PURPOSE OR GENERAL IDEA OF BILL:

This bill recognizes the contributions of commercial equine operations
to agriculture in New York State by providing these operations with
eligibility for the current ten-year real property tax exemption for
indoor riding arenas, as part of structures and buildings essential to
the operation of agricultural and horticultural lands.

SUMMARY OF SPECIFIC PROVISIONS:

Section 1 amends Subdivisions 2 and 8 of § 483 of the Real Property
Tax Law to expand the definition of "structures and buildings" to
include commercial equine operations, as defined in section 301 of the
Agriculture and Markets Law. This section also expand the term
"agricultural and horticultural" to include commercial equine
operations, as defined in section 301 of the Agricultural and Markets
Law.

Section 2 is the effective date.

JUSTIFICATION:

Commercial equine operations already have access to agricultural
district protections and agricultural assessment tax relief if they
consist of at least seven acres, stable ten horses regardless of
ownership and gross $10,000. This legislation would further extend
benefits, already enjoyed by all other types of farms, to these
operations. According to the National Agricultural Statistical
Service's (NASS) Equine Survey from 2005, there are approximately
200,000 horses in New York, with a value of $1.83 billion. Over-all,
total equine-related assets, held by owners, are valued at
approximately $10 billion. Total annual revenue to the New York
economy from equine businesses is approximately $450 million annually.
A large portion of this total comes from revenues generated by
providing equine services, such as boarding, trail riding, riding
lessons, training and therapeutic riding. It is essential that the
same tax exemptions are afforded to commercial equine operation as
granted to structures and buildings essential to the operation of
agricultural and horticultural lands. This bill applies only to
structures build on or after such effective date.

PRIOR LEGISLATIVE HISTORY:

2013-2014: S.4261/ A.6501

FISCAL IMPLICATIONS:

To be determined.

EFFECTIVE DATE:


This act will take effect immediately and shall only apply to
structures built on or after the next succeeding final assessment roll
date.
