 residing  on  the  premises  elect to participate in this program, which
 shall  be  known as the STAR income verification program, they] AND must

 SIONER  EVIDENCE TO THE CONTRARY.  IN EITHER CASE, IF THE OWNERS FAIL TO

 FURTHER DOCUMENTATION OR APPROVAL.

 606  of  the tax law, as amended by section 8 of part A of chapter 73 of
 the laws of 2016, is amended to read as follows:
   (B) "Affiliated income" shall mean for  purposes  of  the  basic  STAR
 credit,  the  combined  income  of  all  of the owners of the parcel who
 resided primarily thereon as of December  thirty-first  of  the  taxable
 year,  and  of any owners' spouses residing primarily thereon as of such
 date, and for purposes of the enhanced STAR credit, the combined  income
 of  all  of  the owners of the parcel as of December thirty-first of the
 taxable year, and of any owners' spouses residing primarily  thereon  as
 of  such  date;  provided  that  for  both  purposes the income to be so
 combined shall be the "adjusted gross income" for the  taxable  year  as
 reported  for  federal income tax purposes, or that would be reported as
 adjusted gross income if a federal income tax return were required to be
 filed, reduced by distributions,  to  the  extent  included  in  federal
 adjusted  gross  income,  received from an individual retirement account
 and an individual retirement annuity.   FOR TAXABLE YEARS  BEGINNING  ON
 AND  AFTER  JANUARY FIRST, TWO THOUSAND NINETEEN, WHERE AN INCOME-ELIGI-
 BILITY DETERMINATION IS WHOLLY OR PARTLY BASED UPON THE INCOME OF ONE OR
 MORE INDIVIDUALS WHO DID NOT FILE  A  RETURN  PURSUANT  TO  SECTION  SIX
 HUNDRED  FIFTY-ONE  OF  THIS ARTICLE FOR THE APPLICABLE INCOME TAX YEAR,
 THEN IN  ORDER  TO  BE  ELIGIBLE  FOR  THE  CREDIT  AUTHORIZED  BY  THIS
 SUBSECTION,  EACH SUCH INDIVIDUAL MUST FILE A STATEMENT WITH THE DEPART-
 MENT SHOWING THE SOURCE OR SOURCES OF HIS OR HER INCOME FOR THAT  INCOME
 TAX  YEAR,  AND  THE  AMOUNT  OR  AMOUNTS  THEREOF, THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN
 REPORTED ON SUCH A RETURN IF ONE HAD BEEN FILED. SUCH STATEMENT SHALL BE
 FILED AT SUCH TIME, AND IN SUCH FORM AND MANNER, AS MAY BE PRESCRIBED BY
 THE DEPARTMENT, AND SHALL BE SUBJECT TO THE PROVISIONS  OF  SECTION  SIX
 HUNDRED  NINETY-SEVEN  OF  THIS ARTICLE TO THE SAME EXTENT THAT A RETURN
 WOULD BE. THE DEPARTMENT SHALL MAKE SUCH FORMS AND  INSTRUCTIONS  AVAIL-
 ABLE  FOR  THE  FILING OF SUCH STATEMENTS. Provided further, that if the
 qualified taxpayer was an owner of the property during the taxable  year
 but  did  not  own it on December thirty-first of the taxable year, then
 the determination as to whether the income of an  individual  should  be
 included in "affiliated income" shall be based upon the ownership and/or
 residency  status  of  that  individual as of the first day of the month
 during which the qualified taxpayer ceased to be an owner of the proper-
 ty, rather than as of December thirty-first of the taxable year.
   § 11. No application for an enhanced exemption on a  final  assessment
 roll  to be completed in 2019 may be approved if the applicants have not
 enrolled in the STAR income verification program established by subpara-
 graph (iv) of paragraph (b) of subdivision 4 of section 425 of the  real
 property  tax  law  as amended by section two of this act, regardless of
 when the application was filed. The assessor shall  notify  such  appli-
 cants  that  participation  in that program has become mandatory for all
 applicants and that their applications cannot be  approved  unless  they
 enroll  therein.  The commissioner of taxation and finance shall provide

 CHANGE IN IDENTITY OR FORM OF OWNERSHIP OR ORGANIZATION WHERE  THERE  IS
 NO  CHANGE IN BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP PURSUANT TO PARAGRAPH SIX OF SUBDIVI-

 fact, violated this section, an injunction may be issued by  such  court
 or  justice,  enjoining  and  restraining any further violation and with
 respect to this subdivision, directing  the  filing  of  a  registration

   REPEAL  NOTE:  Section  606(bbb)  of  the  Tax Law, section 3-d of the
 General Municipal Law and section 2023-b of the  Education  Law  collec-
 tively  constituted  the  enabling legislation for the tax freeze credit
 program.  By the terms of those statutes, the tax freeze credit was only
 applicable to taxable  years  2014,  2015  and  2016.  Therefore,  these
 provisions   no  longer  serve  a  purpose,  except  for  the  reporting
 provisions, which facilitate the administration of the  tax  levy  limit
 program and are being preserved in a reenacted section 3-d of the Gener-
 al Municipal Law and section 2023-b of the Education Law.

   1.  The  comptroller  shall  pay taxes levied on lands of the state in
 each county pursuant to the foregoing sections of  this  title,  out  of
 moneys appropriated by the legislature therefor, to the county treasurer
 for  appropriate  distribution  upon  submission  of a statement of such
 taxes by him or her in such form and executed  in  such  manner  by  the

 S. 7509--A                         14                         A. 9509--A
 
 county treasurer as may be required by the comptroller. Provided, howev-
 er,  that in the case of lands which are taxable pursuant to subdivision
 (j) of section five hundred thirty-two of this  title,  the  comptroller
 shall  pay  such  taxes.  Such payment shall be requested, processed and
 paid separately from all other taxes that  are  payable  to  the  county
 treasurer pursuant to this section.  PROVIDED FURTHER, THAT ON AND AFTER
 APRIL FIRST, TWO THOUSAND EIGHTEEN, ONCE TAXES HAVE BEEN PAID ON A TAXA-
 BLE  PARCEL  OF  STATE  LAND PURSUANT TO THIS SUBDIVISION, THE AMOUNT OF

 EQUAL THE TAXES THAT WERE PAYABLE ON THAT PARCEL  IN  THE  PRIOR  FISCAL
 YEAR  OF  THE  LOCAL  GOVERNMENT MULTIPLIED BY THE ALLOWABLE LEVY GROWTH
 FACTOR. AS USED IN THIS PARAGRAPH, THE TERMS "LOCAL GOVERNMENT,"  "PRIOR
 FISCAL  YEAR"  AND  "ALLOWABLE  LEVY  GROWTH FACTOR" SHALL HAVE THE SAME
 MEANINGS AS SET FORTH IN SECTION THREE-C OF THE GENERAL  MUNICIPAL  LAW,
 PROVIDED  THAT  IF  SUCH SECTION IS NO LONGER IN EFFECT ON THE DATE SUCH
 TAXES ARE PAID, SUCH TERMS SHALL BE DEEMED  TO  HAVE  THE  MEANINGS  SET
 FORTH  IN  SUCH  SECTION  AS IT READ ON THE LAST DATE ON WHICH IT WAS IN
 EFFECT.
   (B) IN THE CASE OF A SCHOOL DISTRICT, THE TAXES SO PAYABLE SHALL EQUAL
 THE TAXES THAT WERE PAYABLE ON THAT PARCEL IN THE PRIOR SCHOOL  YEAR  OF

 USED IN THIS PARAGRAPH, THE TERMS "SCHOOL DISTRICT," "PRIOR SCHOOL YEAR"
 AND "ALLOWABLE LEVY GROWTH FACTOR" SHALL HAVE THE SAME MEANINGS  AS  SET
 FORTH  IN  SECTION  TWO  THOUSAND  TWENTY-THREE-A  OF THE EDUCATION LAW,
 PROVIDED THAT IF SUCH SECTION IS NO LONGER IN EFFECT ON  THE  DATE  SUCH
 TAXES  ARE  PAID,  SUCH  TERMS  SHALL BE DEEMED TO HAVE THE MEANINGS SET

 PROVIDED BY SUBDIVISION ONE OF THIS SECTION.
   (D) THE FOLLOWING PROVISIONS SHALL  APPLY  TO  STATE  LANDS  THAT  ARE
 SUBJECT TO THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SUBDIVISION:
   (I)  SUCH  LANDS  SHALL  NOT BE INCLUDED ON THE LISTS OF TAXABLE STATE
 LANDS THAT MUST BE SUPPLIED BY THE COMMISSIONER PURSUANT TO SECTION FIVE
 HUNDRED FORTY OF THIS TITLE.
   (II) THE ASSESSMENTS OF SUCH  LANDS  SHALL  NOT  BE  REPORTED  TO  THE
 COMMISSIONER PURSUANT TO SECTION FIVE HUNDRED FORTY-TWO OF THIS TITLE.
   (III)  THE  ASSESSMENTS  OF  SUCH  LANDS  SHALL  NOT BE SUBJECT TO THE
 APPROVAL OF THE COMMISSIONER PURSUANT TO SUCH SECTION, AND SHALL NOT  BE
 TAKEN INTO ACCOUNT IN THE CALCULATION OF THE TAXES DUE ON SUCH LANDS.
   (IV)  SUCH LANDS SHALL BE ENTERED ON THE EXEMPT PORTION OF THE ASSESS-
 MENT ROLL, NOTWITHSTANDING THE FACT THAT THEY ARE  TAXABLE  PURSUANT  TO
 THIS TITLE. PROVIDED, THAT NO SUCH ENTRY SHALL BE MADE IN THE CASE OF AN

 S. 7509--A                         15                         A. 9509--A

 STATE  AID  PAYABLE  PURSUANT TO SECTION FIVE HUNDRED FORTY-FIVE OF THIS
 TITLE DUE TO A REDUCTION IN THE ASSESSMENT OF TAXABLE STATE LAND.

   Section 1. Section 33 of the tax law, as added by section 1 of part  Y
 of chapter 57 of the laws of 2010, is amended to read as follows:
   §  33.  Temporary  deferral of certain tax credits. 1. (a) For taxable
 years beginning on or after January first, two thousand  [ten]  EIGHTEEN
 and before January first, two thousand [thirteen] TWENTY-ONE, the excess
 over  two  million dollars of the total amount of the tax credits speci-
 fied in subdivision three of this section that in each of those  taxable
 years  would otherwise be used to reduce the taxpayer's tax liability to
 the amount otherwise specified in this chapter or be refunded or credit-
 ed as an overpayment will be deferred to and used or refunded in taxable
 years beginning on or after January first, two thousand [thirteen] TWEN-
 TY-ONE in accordance with the provisions of section thirty-four of  this
 article. Interest shall not be paid on the amounts of credit deferred.
   (b) To determine the amount of each tax credit allowed for the taxable
 year  to  be  used,  refunded or credited as an overpayment the taxpayer
 shall multiply the amount of each credit subject to deferral that  would

 S. 7509--A                         34                         A. 9509--A
 
 have been used, refunded or credited as an overpayment in the absence of
 this  section  by  a  fraction,  the  numerator  of which is two million
 dollars, and the denominator of which is the total amount of the taxpay-
 er's  credits  subject to deferral pursuant to subdivision three of this
 section that would have been used, refunded or credited as  an  overpay-
 ment for the taxable year in the absence of this section. The product is
 the  amount  of  such  credit  that  is not subject to deferral and thus
 allowed to be used, refunded or credited as an overpayment for the taxa-
 ble year.
   2. Taxpayers shall calculate  and  make  any  estimated  tax  payments
 required  to  be  made  by  taking  into account the deferral of credits
 required by this section. Taxpayers shall calculate any mandatory  first
 installment payments made on or after the effective date of this section
 as  if  the  deferral  of  credits  required by this section had been in
 effect for the taxable year upon which that  installment  is  based.  In
 addition,  for  taxable  years  beginning on or after January first, two
 thousand [ten] EIGHTEEN and before January first, two thousand  [eleven]
 NINETEEN,  (a)  no  addition  to tax under subsection (c) of section six
 hundred eighty-five of this chapter or subsection  (c)  of  section  one
 thousand  eighty-five  of  this chapter shall be imposed with respect to
 any underpayment attributable to the deferral required by  this  section
 of  any estimated taxes that are required to be paid prior to the enact-
 ment of this section, provided  that  the  taxpayer  timely  made  those
 payments; and (b) the required installment of estimated tax described in
 clause  (ii) of subparagraph (B) of paragraph three of subsection (c) of
 section six hundred eighty-five of this chapter, and  the  exception  to
 addition for underpayment of estimated tax described in paragraph one or
 two  of subsection (d) of section one thousand eighty-five of this chap-
 ter, in relation to the preceding year's return, shall be calculated  as
 if  the  deferral  required  by this section had been in effect for that
 entire preceding year.

 provided  for  in  paragraph  (6)  of  subdivision (a) of section eleven
 hundred fifteen of this chapter for use by such person on such livestock

 empire zone pursuant to article eighteen-B of the general municipal law,
 but only to the extent that such property becomes an integral  component
 part of the real property. (For the purpose of clause (3) of the preced-
 ing sentence, the term "pre-existing lump sum or unit price construction
 contract"  shall mean a contract for the construction of improvements to
 real property under which  the  amount  payable  to  the  contractor  or
 subcontractor  is  fixed  without regard to the costs incurred by him in

 such  refund or credit, such tangible personal property must be incorpo-
 rated into real property as required in clause (1) above,  reshipped  as
 required  in  clause  (2) above, used in the manner described in clauses
 (3), (4)[, (5)] and (6) above within three years after the date such tax
 was payable to the tax commission by  the  vendor  pursuant  to  section
 eleven  hundred  thirty-seven.  Where the tax on the sale or use of such
 tangible personal property was paid by the applicant for the  credit  or
 refund  directly  to  the  tax commission, to qualify for such refund or
 credit, such tangible personal property must be incorporated  into  real
 property  as  required  in  clause  (1)  above, reshipped as required in
 clause (2) above, used in the manner described  in  clauses  (3),  (4)[,
 (5)]  and (6) above within three years after the date such tax was paya-
 ble to the tax commission by such applicant pursuant to this article. An
 application for a refund or credit pursuant  to  this  section  must  be
 filed  with  such commission within the time provided by subdivision (a)
 of section eleven hundred thirty-nine. Such application shall be in such
 form as the tax commission may prescribe. Where an application for cred-
 it has been filed, the applicant may immediately take such credit on the
 return which is due coincident with or  immediately  subsequent  to  the
 time  that  he  files his application for credit. However, the taking of
 the credit on the return shall be deemed to be part of  the  application
 for credit and shall be subject to the provisions in respect to applica-
 tions  for  credit  in section eleven hundred thirty-nine as provided in
 subdivision (e) of such section. With respect to a sale or use described
 in clause (3)  above  where  a  pre-existing  lump  sum  or  unit  price
 construction  contract was irrevocably entered into prior to the date of
 the enactment of this article or the bid accompanied by the  performance
 guaranty  was  irrevocably submitted to the governmental agency prior to
 such date, the purchaser or user shall be entitled to a refund or credit
 only of the amount by which the tax on such sale or  use  imposed  under
 this  article  plus any tax imposed under the authority of article twen-
 ty-nine exceeds the amount computed by applying against such sale or use
 the local rate of tax, if any, in effect at the time such  contract  was
 entered into or such bid was submitted.
   In  the  case  of  the  enactment  of a law increasing the rate of tax
 imposed by this article, the purchaser or user shall be entitled only to
 a refund or credit of the amount by which the increased tax on such sale
 or use imposed under this article plus any tax imposed under the author-
 ity of article twenty-nine  exceeds  the  amount  computed  by  applying
 against  such  sale or use the state and local rates of tax in effect at
 the time such contract was entered into or such bid was submitted.
   § 3. This act shall take effect June 1, 2018, and shall apply to sales
 made and uses occurring on and after such date.

   (a)  Any  racing  association  or  corporation  or  regional off-track
 betting corporation, authorized to conduct  pari-mutuel  wagering  under
 this  chapter, desiring to display the simulcast of horse races on which
 pari-mutuel betting shall be permitted in the manner and subject to  the
 conditions  provided for in this article may apply to the commission for
 a license so to do. Applications for licenses shall be in such  form  as
 may  be  prescribed by the commission and shall contain such information
 or other material or evidence as the commission may require. No  license
 shall be issued by the commission authorizing the simulcast transmission
 of  thoroughbred  races  from a track located in Suffolk county. The fee
 for such licenses shall be five hundred dollars per  simulcast  facility
 and  for  account wagering licensees that do not operate either a simul-
 cast facility that is open to the public within the state of New York or
 a licensed racetrack within the state, twenty thousand dollars per  year
 payable  by  the licensee to the commission for deposit into the general
 fund. Except as provided in  this  section,  the  commission  shall  not
 approve any application to conduct simulcasting into individual or group
 residences,  homes  or  other areas for the purposes of or in connection
 with pari-mutuel wagering. The commission may approve simulcasting  into
 residences,  homes or other areas to be conducted jointly by one or more
 regional off-track betting corporations and one or more of  the  follow-
 ing:  a  franchised  corporation,  thoroughbred  racing corporation or a

 by  this  chapter  at  one  or more simulcast facilities for each of the
 contracting off-track betting corporations which  shall  include  wagers
 made  in  accordance  with  section  one  thousand fifteen, one thousand
 sixteen and one thousand seventeen of  this  article;  provided  further
 that  the  contract  provisions or other simulcast arrangements for such
 simulcast facility shall be no less favorable than those  in  effect  on
 January  first,  two  thousand  five;  (ii)  that each off-track betting
 corporation having within its  geographic  boundaries  such  residences,
 homes  or  other  areas  technically  capable of receiving the simulcast
 signal shall be a contracting party; (iii) the distribution of  revenues
 shall  be  subject  to  contractual agreement of the parties except that
 statutory payments to  non-contracting  parties,  if  any,  may  not  be
 reduced;  provided,  however,  that nothing herein to the contrary shall
 prevent a track from televising its races on an irregular basis primari-
 ly for promotional or marketing purposes as found by the commission. For
 purposes of this paragraph, the provisions of section one thousand thir-
 teen of this article shall  not  apply.  Any  agreement  authorizing  an
 in-home simulcasting experiment commencing prior to May fifteenth, nine-
 teen hundred ninety-five, may, and all its terms, be extended until June
 thirtieth, two thousand [eighteen] NINETEEN; provided, however, that any
 party  to  such  agreement  may  elect  to terminate such agreement upon
 conveying written notice to all other parties of such agreement at least
 forty-five days prior to the effective  date  of  the  termination,  via
 registered  mail.  Any party to an agreement receiving such notice of an
 intent to terminate, may request the commission to mediate  between  the
 parties  new terms and conditions in a replacement agreement between the
 parties as will permit continuation of an in-home experiment until  June
 thirtieth,  two thousand [eighteen] NINETEEN; and (iv) no in-home simul-
 casting in the thoroughbred special betting district shall occur without
 the approval of the regional thoroughbred track.

 thirtieth, two thousand [eighteen] NINETEEN, the amount used exclusively
 for purses to be awarded at races  conducted  by  such  receiving  track
 shall  be computed as follows: of the sums so retained, two and one-half
 percent of the total pools. Such amount shall be increased or  decreased
 in  the  amount  of fifty percent of the difference in total commissions
 determined by comparing the total commissions available after July twen-
 ty-first, nineteen hundred ninety-five to  the  total  commissions  that
 would  have  been  available  to  such track prior to July twenty-first,

 amended by section 13-a of part Q of chapter 60 of the laws of 2016,  is
 amended to read as follows:
   (1) If any taxpayer fails to file a declaration of estimated tax under
 article  nine-A  of  this chapter, or fails to pay all or any part of an
 amount which is applied as an installment against such estimated tax, it
 shall be deemed to have made an underpayment  of  estimated  tax.  There
 shall  be  added to the tax for the taxable year an amount at the under-
 payment rate set by the commissioner pursuant to  section  one  thousand
 ninety-six  of  this article, or if no rate is set, at the rate of seven
 and one-half percent per annum upon the amount of the  underpayment  for
 the  period  of the underpayment but not beyond the fifteenth day of the
 [third] FOURTH month following the close of the taxable year.  PROVIDED,
 HOWEVER,  THAT,  FOR  TAXABLE YEARS BEGINNING ON OR AFTER JANUARY FIRST,
 TWO THOUSAND SEVENTEEN AND BEFORE JANUARY FIRST, TWO THOUSAND  EIGHTEEN,
 NO  AMOUNT SHALL BE ADDED TO THE TAX WITH RESPECT TO THE PORTION OF SUCH
 TAX RELATED TO THE AMOUNT OF ANY INTEREST DEDUCTIONS DIRECTLY  OR  INDI-

 TWO HUNDRED EIGHT OF THIS CHAPTER OR THE FORTY PERCENT REDUCTION OF SUCH
 EXEMPT CFC INCOME IN  LIEU  OF  INTEREST  ATTRIBUTION  IF  THE  ELECTION
 DESCRIBED IN PARAGRAPH (B) OF SUBDIVISION SIX-A OF SUCH SECTION IS MADE.
 The amount of the underpayment shall be, with respect to any installment
 of  estimated  tax  computed on the basis of either the preceding year's
 tax or the second  preceding  year's  tax,  the  excess  of  the  amount
 required  to be paid over the amount, if any, paid on or before the last
 day prescribed for such payment or, with respect to any  other  install-
 ment of estimated tax, the excess of the amount of the installment which
 would  be required to be paid if the estimated tax were equal to ninety-
 one percent of the tax shown on the return for the taxable year  (or  if
 no  return  was filed, ninety-one percent of the tax for such year) over
 the amount, if any, of the installment paid on or before  the  last  day
 prescribed  for  such  payment.  In  any case in which there would be no
 underpayment  if  "eighty  percent"  were  substituted  for  "ninety-one
 percent"  each  place it appears in this subsection, the addition to the
 tax shall be equal to  seventy-five  percent  of  the  amount  otherwise
 determined.  No  underpayment shall be deemed to exist with respect to a
 declaration or installment otherwise due on or after the termination  of
 existence of the taxpayer.

 assessor to] MUST have their income eligibility verified annually [ther-
 eafter]  by  the [state] department [of taxation and finance, in lieu of
 furnishing copies of the applicable income tax return  or  returns  with
 the  application.  If the owners of the property and any owners' spouses
 residing on the premises elect to participate  in  this  program,  which
 shall  be  known as the STAR income verification program, they] AND must
 furnish their taxpayer identification numbers  in  order  to  facilitate
 matching  with records of the department. [Thereafter, their] THE income

 FURTHER DOCUMENTATION OR APPROVAL.

 section  whereby the designated third party shall consent to such desig-
 nation. Such request shall be effective upon receipt  by  the  assessor.
 The  assessor  shall maintain a list of all eligible property owners who
 have requested notices pursuant to this paragraph AND  SHALL  FURNISH  A
 COPY OF SUCH LIST TO THE DEPARTMENT UPON REQUEST.
   (ii)  [In  the case of a senior citizen who has not elected to partic-
 ipate in the STAR income verification program, a notice shall be sent to
 the designated third party at least thirty days prior  to  each  ensuing
 taxable  status  date;  provided that no such notice need be sent in the
 first year if the request was not received  by  the  assessor  at  least
 sixty  days before the applicable taxable status date. Such notice shall
 read substantially as follows:
   "On behalf of (identify senior citizen or citizens), you  are  advised

 in the STAR income verification program, a] A notice shall  be  sent  to
 the  designated  third party whenever the assessor OR DEPARTMENT sends a
 notice to the senior citizen  regarding  the  possible  removal  of  the
 enhanced  STAR  exemption.  WHEN  THE  EXEMPTION  IS  SUBJECT TO REMOVAL
 BECAUSE THE COMMISSIONER HAS  DETERMINED  THAT  THE  INCOME  ELIGIBILITY
 REQUIREMENT  IS  NOT  SATISFIED,  SUCH NOTICE SHALL BE SENT TO THE THIRD
 PARTY BY THE DEPARTMENT.  WHEN  THE  EXEMPTION  IS  SUBJECT  TO  REMOVAL
 BECAUSE  THE ASSESSOR HAS DETERMINED THAT ANY OTHER ELIGIBILITY REQUIRE-
 MENT IS NOT SATISFIED, SUCH NOTICE SHALL BE SENT TO THE THIRD  PARTY  BY
 THE ASSESSOR. Such notice shall read substantially as follows:
   "On  behalf  of (identify senior citizen or citizens), you are advised
 that his, her, or their enhanced STAR exemption  is  at  risk  of  being
 removed.  You are encouraged to make sure that he, she or they are aware
 of that fact, and to offer assistance if needed, although you are  under

 A. 9509--B                          7
 
 no legal obligation to do so. Your cooperation and assistance are great-
 ly appreciated."
   [(iv)]  (III)  The  obligation to mail such notices shall cease if the

 enhanced STAR exemption.

 a  term  of  one  year. To continue receiving such enhanced exemption, a
 renewal application must be filed  annually  with  the  assessor  on  or
 before  the  applicable  taxable status date on a form prescribed by the
 commissioner. Provided, however, that if a renewal application is not so
 filed, the assessor shall discontinue the enhanced exemption  but  shall
 grant  the  basic  exemption,  subject  to the provisions of subdivision

 al Municipal Law and section 2023-b of the Education Law.

 A. 9509--B                         58
 
 this chapter, desiring to display the simulcast of horse races on  which
 pari-mutuel  betting shall be permitted in the manner and subject to the
 conditions provided for in this article may apply to the commission  for
 a  license  so to do. Applications for licenses shall be in such form as
 may be prescribed by the commission and shall contain  such  information
 or  other material or evidence as the commission may require. No license
 shall be issued by the commission authorizing the simulcast transmission
 of thoroughbred races from a track located in Suffolk  county.  The  fee
 for  such  licenses shall be five hundred dollars per simulcast facility
 and for account wagering licensees that do not operate either  a  simul-
 cast facility that is open to the public within the state of New York or
 a  licensed racetrack within the state, twenty thousand dollars per year
 payable by the licensee to the commission for deposit into  the  general
 fund.  Except  as  provided  in  this  section, the commission shall not
 approve any application to conduct simulcasting into individual or group
 residences, homes or other areas for the purposes of  or  in  connection
 with  pari-mutuel wagering. The commission may approve simulcasting into
 residences, homes or other areas to be conducted jointly by one or  more
 regional  off-track  betting corporations and one or more of the follow-
 ing: a franchised corporation,  thoroughbred  racing  corporation  or  a
 harness racing corporation or association; provided (i) the simulcasting
 consists  only of those races on which pari-mutuel betting is authorized
 by this chapter at one or more simulcast  facilities  for  each  of  the
 contracting  off-track  betting  corporations which shall include wagers
 made in accordance with  section  one  thousand  fifteen,  one  thousand
 sixteen  and  one  thousand  seventeen of this article; provided further
 that the contract provisions or other simulcast  arrangements  for  such
 simulcast  facility  shall  be no less favorable than those in effect on
 January first, two thousand  five;  (ii)  that  each  off-track  betting
 corporation  having  within  its  geographic boundaries such residences,
 homes or other areas technically  capable  of  receiving  the  simulcast
 signal  shall be a contracting party; (iii) the distribution of revenues
 shall be subject to contractual agreement of  the  parties  except  that
 statutory  payments  to  non-contracting  parties,  if  any,  may not be
 reduced; provided, however, that nothing herein to  the  contrary  shall
 prevent a track from televising its races on an irregular basis primari-
 ly for promotional or marketing purposes as found by the commission. For
 purposes of this paragraph, the provisions of section one thousand thir-
 teen  of  this  article  shall  not  apply. Any agreement authorizing an
 in-home simulcasting experiment commencing prior to May fifteenth, nine-
 teen hundred ninety-five, may, and all its terms, be extended until June
 thirtieth, two thousand [eighteen] NINETEEN; provided, however, that any
 party to such agreement may  elect  to  terminate  such  agreement  upon

 intent  to  terminate, may request the commission to mediate between the
 parties new terms and conditions in a replacement agreement between  the
 parties  as will permit continuation of an in-home experiment until June
 thirtieth, two thousand [eighteen] NINETEEN; and (iv) no in-home  simul-
 casting in the thoroughbred special betting district shall occur without
 the approval of the regional thoroughbred track.

 commencing January first, two thousand eight and continuing through June
 thirtieth, two thousand [eighteen] NINETEEN, the amount used exclusively
 for  purses  to  be  awarded  at races conducted by such receiving track
 shall be computed as follows: of the sums so retained, two and  one-half
 percent  of the total pools. Such amount shall be increased or decreased
 in the amount of fifty percent of the difference  in  total  commissions
 determined by comparing the total commissions available after July twen-
 ty-first,  nineteen  hundred  ninety-five  to the total commissions that
 would have been available to such  track  prior  to  July  twenty-first,

 "multiple bets" shall have  the  meanings  set  forth  in  section  five

 ninth, nineteen hundred ninety-nine, such tax on regular wagers shall be
 three  per  centum and such tax on multiple wagers shall be two and one-
 half per centum, plus twenty per centum of the breaks.  For  the  period
 September  tenth,  nineteen  hundred  ninety-nine  through March thirty-
 first, two thousand one, such tax on all wagers shall be  two  and  six-
 tenths  per  centum  and  for  the  period April first, two thousand one

 corporation shall be one-half of one per centum of total daily  on-track
 pari-mutuel  pools  resulting from regular, multiple and exotic bets and

   (b) "Exempt CFC income" means (I) the income required to  be  included
 in  the  taxpayer's  federal  gross income pursuant to subsection (a) of
 section 951 of the internal revenue code, received  from  a  corporation
 that  is  conducting  a  unitary  business  with the taxpayer but is not
 included in a combined report with the taxpayer, AND (II) TO THE  EXTENT
 NOT INCLUDED IN SUBPARAGRAPH (I) OF THIS PARAGRAPH, SUCH INCOME REQUIRED
 TO  BE  INCLUDED  IN  THE  TAXPAYER'S  FEDERAL  GROSS INCOME PURSUANT TO
 SUBSECTION (A) OF SUCH SECTION 951  OF  THE  INTERNAL  REVENUE  CODE  BY

 deductions, the taxpayer may make a revocable  election  to  reduce  its
 total  exempt  CFC  income  by forty percent. If the taxpayer makes this
 election, the taxpayer must also make  the  elections  provided  for  in

 the  taxpayer must revoke the elections provided for in paragraph (b) of

 income will not be precluded from making those other elections.
   §  2.  Subparagraph 6 of paragraph (a) of subdivision 9 of section 208
 of the tax law, as amended by section 4 of part A of chapter 59  of  the
 laws of 2014, is amended to read as follows:

 amended  by section 13-a of part Q of chapter 60 of the laws of 2016, is
 amended to read as follows:
   (1) If any taxpayer fails to file a declaration of estimated tax under
 article nine-A of this chapter, or fails to pay all or any  part  of  an
 amount which is applied as an installment against such estimated tax, it
 shall  be  deemed  to  have made an underpayment of estimated tax. There
 shall be added to the tax for the taxable year an amount at  the  under-
 payment  rate  set  by the commissioner pursuant to section one thousand
 ninety-six of this article, or if no rate is set, at the rate  of  seven
 and  one-half  percent per annum upon the amount of the underpayment for
 the period of the underpayment but not beyond the fifteenth day  of  the
 [third]  FOURTH month following the close of the taxable year. PROVIDED,
 HOWEVER, THAT, FOR TAXABLE YEARS BEGINNING ON OR  AFTER  JANUARY  FIRST,
 TWO  THOUSAND SEVENTEEN AND BEFORE JANUARY FIRST, TWO THOUSAND EIGHTEEN,
 NO AMOUNT SHALL BE ADDED TO THE TAX WITH RESPECT TO THE PORTION OF  SUCH
 TAX  RELATED  TO THE AMOUNT OF ANY INTEREST DEDUCTIONS DIRECTLY OR INDI-
 RECTLY ATTRIBUTABLE TO THE AMOUNT INCLUDED IN EXEMPT CFC INCOME PURSUANT
 TO SUBPARAGRAPH (II) OF PARAGRAPH (B) OF SUBDIVISION  SIX-A  OF  SECTION
 TWO HUNDRED EIGHT OF THIS CHAPTER OR THE FORTY PERCENT REDUCTION OF SUCH
 EXEMPT  CFC  INCOME  IN  LIEU  OF  INTEREST  ATTRIBUTION IF THE ELECTION
 DESCRIBED IN PARAGRAPH (B) OF SUBDIVISION SIX-A OF SUCH SECTION IS MADE.
 The amount of the underpayment shall be, with respect to any installment
 of estimated tax computed on the basis of either  the  preceding  year's
 tax  or  the  second  preceding  year's  tax,  the  excess of the amount
 required to be paid over the amount, if any, paid on or before the  last
 day  prescribed  for such payment or, with respect to any other install-
 ment of estimated tax, the excess of the amount of the installment which
 would be required to be paid if the estimated tax were equal to  ninety-
 one  percent  of the tax shown on the return for the taxable year (or if
 no return was filed, ninety-one percent of the tax for such  year)  over
 the  amount,  if  any, of the installment paid on or before the last day
 prescribed for such payment. In any case in  which  there  would  be  no
 underpayment  if  "eighty  percent"  were  substituted  for  "ninety-one
 percent" each place it appears in this subsection, the addition  to  the
 tax  shall  be  equal  to  seventy-five  percent of the amount otherwise
 determined. No underpayment shall be deemed to exist with respect  to  a
 declaration  or installment otherwise due on or after the termination of
 existence of the taxpayer.

 from a corporation that  is  conducting  a  unitary  business  with  the
 taxpayer but is not included in a combined report with the taxpayer, AND
 (II)  TO  THE EXTENT NOT INCLUDED IN SUBPARAGRAPH (I) OF THIS PARAGRAPH,
 SUCH INCOME REQUIRED TO BE INCLUDED  IN  THE  TAXPAYER'S  FEDERAL  GROSS
 INCOME PURSUANT TO SUBSECTION (A) OF SUCH SECTION NINE HUNDRED FIFTY-ONE
 OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE BY REASON OF SUBSECTION (A) OF SECTION NINE
 HUNDRED  SIXTY-FIVE  OF  THE  INTERNAL  REVENUE  CODE,  AS  ADJUSTED  BY

 UE CODE, AND WITHOUT REGARD TO SUBSECTION (C) OF SUCH SECTION,  RECEIVED
 FROM  A  CORPORATION  THAT IS NOT INCLUDED IN A COMBINED REPORT WITH THE
 TAXPAYER, less, (III) in the discretion of the commissioner of  finance,
 any  interest  deductions  directly  or  indirectly attributable to that
 income. In lieu of subtracting from its exempt CFC income the amount  of
 those interest deductions, the taxpayer may make a revocable election to
 reduce  its  total  exempt  CFC income by forty percent. If the taxpayer
 makes this election, the taxpayer must also make the elections  provided
 for  in  paragraph (b) of subdivision five of this section and paragraph
 (c) of this subdivision.  If  the  taxpayer  subsequently  revokes  this
 election,  the  taxpayer must revoke the elections provided for in para-
 graph (b) of subdivision five of this section and paragraph (c) of  this
 subdivision.    A  taxpayer which does not make this election because it
 has no exempt CFC income will not be precluded from making  those  other
 elections.

   3.  Failure  to  file declaration or underpayment of estimated tax. If
 any taxpayer fails to file a declaration of estimated tax under subchap-
 ter two, three or three-A of this chapter, or fails to pay  all  or  any
 part  of an amount which is applied as an installment against such esti-
 mated tax, it shall be deemed to have made an underpayment of  estimated
 tax.   There shall be added to the tax for the taxable year an amount at
 the underpayment rate set by the commissioner  of  finance  pursuant  to

 A. 9509--B                         70
 
 section 11-687 of this subchapter, or, if no rate is set, at the rate of
 seven and one-half percent per annum upon the amount of the underpayment
 for  the  period of the underpayment but not beyond the fifteenth day of
 the  [third]  FORTH  month  following  the  close  of  the taxable year.
 PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT, FOR TAXPAYERS UNDER SUBCHAPTER THREE-A OF  THIS
 CHAPTER,  FOR  TAXABLE  YEARS  BEGINNING  ON OR AFTER JANUARY FIRST, TWO
 THOUSAND SEVENTEEN AND BEFORE JANUARY FIRST, TWO THOUSAND  EIGHTEEN,  NO
 AMOUNT SHALL BE ADDED TO THE TAX WITH RESPECT TO THE PORTION OF SUCH TAX
 RELATED  TO THE AMOUNT OF ANY INTEREST DEDUCTIONS DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY

 11-652 OF THIS CHAPTER OR THE FORTY PERCENT REDUCTION OF SUCH EXEMPT CFC
 INCOME IN LIEU OF INTEREST ATTRIBUTION IF SUCH  ELECTION  IS  MADE.  The
 amount  of the underpayment shall be, with respect to any installment of
 estimated tax computed on the basis of EITHER the preceding  year's  tax
 OR THE SECOND PRECEDING YEAR'S TAX, the excess of the amount required to
 be  paid  over  the  amount,  if  any,  paid  on  or before the last day
 prescribed for such payment or, with respect to any other installment of
 estimated tax, the excess of the amount of the installment  which  would
 be required to be paid if the estimated tax were equal to ninety percent
 of the tax shown on the return for the taxable year (or if no return was
 filed, ninety percent of the tax for such year) over the amount, if any,
 of  the  installment  paid on or before the last day prescribed for such
 payment. In any case in which there would be no underpayment if  "eighty
 percent"  were substituted for "ninety percent" each place it appears in
 this subdivision, the addition to the tax shall be equal to seventy-five
 percent of the amount otherwise determined.  No  underpayment  shall  be
 deemed  to  exist with respect to a declaration or installment otherwise
 due on or after the termination of existence of the taxpayer.
   § 9. This act shall take effect immediately and shall apply to taxable
 years beginning on or after January 1, 2017.

   (C)  EACH  SUCH TWELVE-MONTH PERIOD SHALL BE DETERMINED WITHOUT REGARD

 PRIOR  TO THE COLLECTING OFFICER'S RECEIPT OF THE TAX WARRANT, THE ASSO-
 CIATED PROPERTY TAX BILL SHALL REFLECT A REDUCTION IN THE TAX  LIABILITY
 EQUAL  TO THE CREDIT AUTHORIZED BY THIS SECTION.  WHERE A PROPERTY OWNER
 SUBMITS A CREDIT CLAIM FORM TO THE COLLECTING OFFICER SUBSEQUENT TO  THE
 COLLECTING  OFFICER'S RECEIPT OF THE TAX WARRANT, BUT PRIOR TO THE MAIL-
 ING OF THE PROPERTY TAX BILLS,  THE  COLLECTING  OFFICER  SHALL  MAKE  A
 REASONABLE  ATTEMPT  TO  PROVIDE  THAT  THE ASSOCIATED PROPERTY TAX BILL
 REFLECT A REDUCTION IN THE TAX LIABILITY EQUAL TO THE CREDIT  AUTHORIZED

 MENT OF MORTGAGE ESCROW ACCOUNTS TO REFLECT THE CREDITS PROVIDED  PURSU-
 ANT TO THIS SECTION.
   (C)  IF  THE  PROPERTY  OWNER  FAILS TO PRESENT THE ACKNOWLEDGMENT AND
 CREDIT CLAIM FORM TO THE COLLECTING OFFICER ON OR BEFORE  THE  LAST  DAY
 PRESCRIBED  BY LAW ON WHICH TAXES MAY BE PAID WITHOUT INTEREST OR PENAL-
 TY, HE OR SHE MAY PRESENT THE SAME TO THE CHIEF FISCAL OFFICER OR  CHIEF
 FINANCIAL  OFFICER  OF  THE PARTICIPATING MUNICIPAL CORPORATION, OR TO A
 MEMBER OF HIS OR HER STAFF. SUCH OFFICER SHALL THEREUPON  BE  AUTHORIZED
 AND DIRECTED TO GRANT THE PROPERTY OWNER A REFUND OF PROPERTY TAXES OF A
 PARTICIPATING  MUNICIPAL  CORPORATION IN THE AMOUNT OF THE CREDIT, WHICH
 AMOUNT SHALL BE EQUAL TO NINETY-FIVE PERCENT OF THE TOTAL  CONTRIBUTIONS
 MADE  DURING THE ASSOCIATED CREDIT YEAR, PROVIDED THAT SUCH REFUND SHALL
 NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNT OF TAXES OF  THE  PARTICIPATING  MUNICIPAL  CORPO-
 RATION  THAT  HAVE  BEEN  PAID  ON THE PROPERTY OR THE LIMIT ESTABLISHED
 PURSUANT TO PARAGRAPH (C) OF SUBDIVISION ONE OF THIS  SECTION,  IF  ANY.
 PROVIDED  FURTHER,  THAT  NO INTEREST SHALL BE PAYABLE ON SUCH REFUND IF
 PAID WITHIN FORTY-FIVE DAYS OF THE RECEIPT  OF  THE  ACKNOWLEDGMENT  AND
 CREDIT  CLAIM FORM. THE OWNER OF THE PROPERTY MAY FILE SUCH REFUND CLAIM
 WITH THE AUTHORIZED OFFICER AT ANY TIME DURING  THE  THREE  YEAR  PERIOD
 BEGINNING IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE LAST DAY SUCH TAXES WERE PAYABLE WITHOUT
 INTEREST OR PENALTY.
   4.  THE  AMOUNT  OF  THE  ITEMIZED  DEDUCTION THAT MAY BE CLAIMED BY A
 TAXPAYER UNDER SECTION SIX HUNDRED FIFTEEN OF THE TAX LAW  WITH  RESPECT
 TO  THE  TAXES  PAID  ON  SUCH PROPERTY MAY NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNT OF THE
 TAXES OF A PARTICIPATING MUNICIPAL CORPORATION THAT  HAVE  BEEN  IMPOSED

   (c)  For  a  taxpayer who owned and primarily resided in real property
 receiving the enhanced STAR exemption, the amount of  the  credit  shall

 A. 9509--B                         98

   (d)  In  no  case  may  the  amount  of  the credit allowed under this
 subsection exceed the school district taxes  due  with  respect  to  the
 residence for that school year.
   (4) For purposes of this subsection:
   (a)  "Qualified  gross  income" means the adjusted gross income of the
 qualified taxpayer for the taxable year as reported for  federal  income
 tax  purposes,  or which would be reported as adjusted gross income if a
 federal income tax return were required to be filed. In computing quali-
 fied gross income, the net amount of loss reported on  Federal  Schedule
 C,  D,  E, or F shall not exceed three thousand dollars per schedule. In
 addition, the net amount of any other separate category  of  loss  shall
 not  exceed  three  thousand dollars. The aggregate amount of all losses
 included in computing qualified gross income shall  not  exceed  fifteen
 thousand dollars.
   (b) "STAR tax savings" means the tax savings attributable to the basic
 or enhanced STAR exemption, whichever is applicable, within a portion of
 a  school district, as determined by the commissioner pursuant to subdi-
 vision two of section thirteen hundred six-a of the  real  property  tax
 law.
   (c)  "Metropolitan  commuter  transportation district" or "MCTD" means
 the metropolitan commuter transportation district as defined in  section
 twelve hundred sixty-two of the public authorities law.
   (5)  If  the  amount of the credit allowed under this subsection shall
 exceed the taxpayer's tax for the taxable  year,  the  excess  shall  be
 treated  as  an overpayment of tax to be credited or refunded in accord-
 ance with the provisions of section six hundred eighty-six of this arti-
 cle, provided, however, that no interest shall be paid thereon. For each
 year this credit is allowed, on or  before  October  fifteenth  of  such
 year,  or  as  soon thereafter as is practicable, the commissioner shall
 determine the taxpayer's  eligibility  for  this  credit  utilizing  the
 information  available  to  the  commissioner on the taxpayer's personal
 income tax return filed for the taxable year  two  years  prior  to  the
 taxable  year  in  which the credit is allowed. For those taxpayers whom
 the commissioner has determined eligible for this  credit,  the  commis-
 sioner  shall  advance  a  payment  in the amount specified in paragraph
 three of this subsection, which payment shall be issued, to the greatest
 extent practicable, by October thirty-first of each year the  credit  is
 allowed. A taxpayer who has failed to receive an advance payment that he
 or  she  believes  was due to him or her, or who has received an advance
 payment that he or she believes is less than the amount that was due  to
 him  or  her,  may request payment of the claimed deficiency in a manner
 prescribed by the commissioner.
   (6) A taxpayer shall not be eligible for the credit allowed under this
 subsection if the school district taxes levied upon the residence during
 the taxable year remain unpaid sixty days after the last date  on  which
 they  could  have been paid without interest, or in the case of a school
 district where such taxes are payable in  installments,  if  such  taxes
 remain unpaid sixty days after the last date on which the final install-

 A. 9509--B                         99
 
 ment  could  have been paid without interest. If the taxes remain unpaid
 on such sixtieth day, the amount of credit claimed by the taxpayer under
 this subsection or the amount of advance payment of credit  received  by
 the  taxpayer  pursuant  to  paragraph  five of this subsection shall be
 added back as tax on the income tax return for the taxable year in which
 such sixtieth day occurs.
   (7) Only one credit per residence shall be allowed  per  taxable  year
 under  this subsection. When two or more members of a residence are able
 to meet the qualifications for a qualified taxpayer, the credit shall be
 equally divided between or among such individuals. In the case of spous-
 es who file a joint federal return but who  are  required  to  determine
 their  New  York  taxes  separately, the credit allowed pursuant to this
 subsection may be applied against the tax of either or  divided  between
 them as they may elect.
   § 2. This act shall take effect immediately and shall apply to taxable
 years beginning on or after January 1, 2018.

 OF TWO THOUSAND EIGHTEEN WHICH AMENDED  THIS  SUBDIVISION  AS  THE  BASE
 PERIOD.  THE TWENTY THOUSAND DOLLAR LIMITATION IN THIS SUBDIVISION SHALL
 NOT APPLY TO A TAXPAYER  THAT  THE  COMMISSIONER  DETERMINES  HAS  TAKEN
 AFFIRMATIVE  STEPS  TO  EVADE OR AVOID THE COLLECTION OF TAX, SUCH AS BY
 HIDING ASSETS.
   (3) The department shall provide notice to the taxpayer of his or  her
 inclusion  in  the  license  suspension program no later than sixty days
 prior to the date the department intends to inform the  commissioner  of
 motor  vehicles  of  the  taxpayer's  inclusion. However, no such notice
 shall be issued to a taxpayer: (I) whose wages are  being  garnished  by
 the  department  for the payment of past-due tax liabilities or past-due

   (b) a statement that the taxpayer may avoid suspension of his  or  her
 license by fully satisfying the past-due tax liabilities [or], by making
 payment  arrangements satisfactory to the commissioner, [and information
 as to how] BY DEMONSTRATING ANY OF THE GROUNDS FOR CHALLENGE  SET  FORTH
 IN  SUBDIVISION  FIVE  OF  THIS  SECTION,  OR BY PRESENTING FACTS TO THE
 COMMISSIONER RESULTING IN THE COMMISSIONER WAIVING SUSPENSION OF HIS  OR
 HER  LICENSE  BASED  ON  THE  EQUITIES OF THE CASE. SUCH STATEMENT SHALL
 INCLUDE INFORMATION REGARDING ALL OF THE AGENCY'S PROGRAMS THROUGH WHICH
 the taxpayer can pay the past-due tax  liabilities  to  the  department,
 enter into a payment arrangement or request additional information NEED-
 ED TO CHALLENGE THE SUSPENSION UNDER SUBDIVISION FIVE OF THIS SECTION OR

   (c)  a  statement  that  the taxpayer's right to protest the notice is
 limited to raising issues set forth in subdivision five of this section;

 ically  provided  herein, the taxpayer shall have no right to commence a
 court action or proceeding or to any other legal  recourse  against  the
 department or the department of motor vehicles regarding a notice issued
 by  the  department  pursuant  to  this  section and the referral by the
 department of any taxpayer with past-due tax liabilities to the  depart-
 ment  of  motor  vehicles  pursuant  to  this section for the purpose of
 suspending the taxpayer's driver's license. A taxpayer  may  only  chal-
 lenge such suspension or referral on the grounds that (i) the individual
 to  whom  the notice was provided is not the taxpayer at issue; (ii) the
 past-due tax liabilities were satisfied; (iii) the taxpayer's wages  are
 being  garnished  by  the department for the payment of the past-due tax
 liabilities at issue or for past-due child support or combined child and
 spousal support arrears; (iv) the taxpayer's wages are  being  garnished
 for  the payment of past-due child support or combined child and spousal
 support arrears pursuant to  an  income  execution  issued  pursuant  to
 section  five  thousand  two hundred forty-one of the civil practice law
 and rules; (v) the taxpayer's driver's license is a commercial  driver's
 license  as  defined  in  section  five hundred one-a of the vehicle and
 traffic law; [or] (vi) the department incorrectly found that the taxpay-
 er has failed to comply with the terms of  a  payment  arrangement  made
 with  the  commissioner  more than once within a twelve month period for
 the purposes of subdivision three of this section;  (VII)  THE  TAXPAYER
 RECEIVES  PUBLIC  ASSISTANCE OR SUPPLEMENTAL SECURITY INCOME; (VIII) THE
 TAXPAYER'S INCOME DOES NOT EXCEED  TWO  HUNDRED  FIFTY  PERCENT  OF  THE
 POVERTY  LEVEL AS REPORTED BY THE FEDERAL DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN
 SERVICES OR ANY SUCCESSOR AGENCY; OR (IX) PAYMENT OF THE  PAST  DUE  TAX
 LIABILITIES WILL CREATE A HARDSHIP FOR THE TAXPAYER IN MEETING NECESSARY
 LIVING EXPENSES.

 assessor to] MUST have their income eligibility verified annually [ther-
 eafter]  by  the [state] department [of taxation and finance, in lieu of
 furnishing copies of the applicable income tax return  or  returns  with
 the  application.  If the owners of the property and any owners' spouses
 residing on the premises elect to participate  in  this  program,  which
 shall  be  known as the STAR income verification program, they] AND must
 furnish their taxpayer identification numbers  in  order  to  facilitate
 matching  with records of the department. [Thereafter, their] THE income
 eligibility  OF  SUCH  PERSONS  shall  be  verified  annually   by   the
 department, and the assessor shall not request income documentation from
 them[,  unless  such  department  advises  the assessor that they do not
 satisfy the applicable income eligibility requirements, or  that  it  is
 unable to determine whether they satisfy those requirements]. All APPLI-
 CANTS  FOR  THE  ENHANCED  EXEMPTION  AND  ALL  assessing units shall be
 required to participate in this program, WHICH SHALL  BE  KNOWN  AS  THE
 STAR INCOME VERIFICATION PROGRAM.
   (B) WHERE THE COMMISSIONER FINDS THAT THE ENHANCED EXEMPTION SHOULD BE

 SIONER EVIDENCE TO THE CONTRARY. WHERE THE COMMISSIONER FINDS  THAT  THE

 THAT THE PROPERTY IS ELIGIBLE FOR THE EXEMPTION CLAIMED, THE COMMISSION-
 ER SHALL DIRECT THE ASSESSOR OR OTHER PERSON HAVING CUSTODY  OR  CONTROL
 OF  THE  ASSESSMENT  ROLL  OR  TAX  ROLL  TO EITHER REPLACE THE ENHANCED
 EXEMPTION WITH A BASIC EXEMPTION, OR TO  REMOVE  OR  DENY  THE  ENHANCED

 ACCORDINGLY.  SUCH  A  DIRECTIVE  SHALL  BE BINDING UPON THE ASSESSOR OR
 OTHER PERSON HAVING CUSTODY OR CONTROL OF THE  ASSESSMENT  ROLL  OR  TAX
 ROLL,  AND  SHALL  BE  IMPLEMENTED  BY  SUCH PERSON WITHOUT THE NEED FOR

 THE  COMMISSIONER,  THE DEPARTMENT, THE STATE BOARD OF REAL PROPERTY TAX
 SERVICES, THE ASSESSOR OR OTHER PERSON HAVING CUSTODY OR CONTROL OF  THE
 ASSESSMENT ROLL OR TAX ROLL REGARDING SUCH ACTION.

 have requested notices pursuant to this paragraph AND  SHALL  FURNISH  A
 COPY OF SUCH LIST TO THE DEPARTMENT UPON REQUEST.

 the designated third party at least thirty days prior  to  each  ensuing
 taxable  status  date;  provided that no such notice need be sent in the
 first year if the request was not received  by  the  assessor  at  least
 sixty  days before the applicable taxable status date. Such notice shall
 read substantially as follows:
   "On behalf of (identify senior citizen or citizens), you  are  advised
 that  his,  her,  or  their  renewal  application  for the enhanced STAR

 enhanced  STAR  exemption.  WHEN  THE  EXEMPTION  IS  SUBJECT TO REMOVAL
 BECAUSE THE COMMISSIONER HAS  DETERMINED  THAT  THE  INCOME  ELIGIBILITY
 REQUIREMENT  IS  NOT  SATISFIED,  SUCH NOTICE SHALL BE SENT TO THE THIRD
 PARTY BY THE DEPARTMENT.  WHEN  THE  EXEMPTION  IS  SUBJECT  TO  REMOVAL
 BECAUSE  THE ASSESSOR HAS DETERMINED THAT ANY OTHER ELIGIBILITY REQUIRE-
 MENT IS NOT SATISFIED, SUCH NOTICE SHALL BE SENT TO THE THIRD  PARTY  BY
 THE ASSESSOR. Such notice shall read substantially as follows:
   "On  behalf  of (identify senior citizen or citizens), you are advised
 that his, her, or their enhanced STAR exemption  is  at  risk  of  being
 removed.  You are encouraged to make sure that he, she or they are aware

 no legal obligation to do so. Your cooperation and assistance are great-

 enhanced STAR exemption.

 filed, the assessor shall discontinue the enhanced exemption  but  shall

   REPEAL NOTE: Section 606(bbb) of the  Tax  Law,  section  3-d  of  the
 General  Municipal  Law  and section 2023-b of the Education Law collec-
 tively constituted the enabling legislation for the  tax  freeze  credit
 program.  By the terms of those statutes, the tax freeze credit was only
 applicable  to  taxable  years  2014,  2015  and  2016. Therefore, these
 provisions  no  longer  serve  a  purpose,  except  for  the   reporting
 provisions,  which  facilitate  the administration of the tax levy limit
 program and are being preserved in a reenacted section 3-d of the Gener-
 al Municipal Law and section 2023-b of the Education Law.

 but the exemption allowed by this subdivision shall not apply  to  other

 ing, but not limited to, boarding, grooming and  clipping.  Articles  of
 tangible  personal  property designed for use in some manner relating to
 domestic animals or poultry, when sold by such a veterinarian, shall not
 be subject to tax under subdivision (a) of section eleven  hundred  five
 or under section eleven hundred ten. However, the sale of any such arti-
 cles of tangible personal property to a veterinarian shall not be deemed
 a  sale  for  resale  within  the meaning of [pargraph] PARAGRAPH (4) of
 subdivision (b) of section eleven hundred one and shall  not  be  exempt
 from retail sales tax.

 THIS SECTION FOR USE BY SUCH PERSON ON SUCH LIVESTOCK OR POULTRY.
   § 2. Subdivision (a) of section 1119 of the tax  law,  as  amended  by
 chapter  686 of the laws of 1986 and as further amended by section 15 of
 part GG of chapter 63 of the  laws  of  2000,  is  amended  to  read  as

   (a)  Subject  to the conditions and limitations provided for herein, a
 refund or credit shall be allowed for a tax paid pursuant to subdivision
 (a) of section eleven hundred five or section eleven hundred ten (1)  on
 the  sale or use of tangible personal property if the purchaser or user,
 in the performance of  a  contract,  later  incorporates  that  tangible
 personal  property into real property located outside this state, (2) on
 the sale or use of tangible personal property purchased in bulk, or  any
 portion  thereof,  which is stored and not used by the purchaser or user
 within this state if that property is  subsequently  reshipped  by  such
 purchaser  or  user  to  a point outside this state for use outside this
 state, (3) on the sale to or use by a  contractor  or  subcontractor  of
 tangible personal property if that property is used by him solely in the
 performance  of  a  pre-existing  lump  sum  or  unit price construction
 contract, (4) on the sale or use within this state of tangible  personal
 property,  not purchased for resale, if the use of such property in this
 state is restricted to fabricating such property (including  incorporat-
 ing  it  into  or  assembling it with other tangible personal property),
 processing, printing or imprinting such property and  such  property  is
 then  shipped  to a point outside this state for use outside this state,
 [(5) on the sale to or use by a veterinarian of  drugs  or  medicine  if

 such  drugs  or  medicine  are  used  by  such veterinarian in rendering
 services, which are exempt pursuant to subdivision (f) of section eleven
 hundred fifteen of this chapter, to livestock or  poultry  used  in  the
 production  for sale of tangible personal property by farming or if such
 drugs or medicine are sold to a  person  qualifying  for  the  exemption
 provided  for  in  paragraph  (6)  of  subdivision (a) of section eleven
 hundred fifteen of this chapter for use by such person on such livestock
 or poultry,] or (6) on the sale of tangible personal property  purchased
 for  use  in  constructing,  expanding  or  rehabilitating industrial or
 commercial real property (other than property used or to be used  exclu-
 sively by one or more registered vendors primarily engaged in the retail
 sale  of tangible personal property) located in an area designated as an
 empire zone pursuant to article eighteen-B of the general municipal law,
 but only to the extent that such property becomes an integral  component
 part of the real property. (For the purpose of clause (3) of the preced-
 ing sentence, the term "pre-existing lump sum or unit price construction
 contract"  shall mean a contract for the construction of improvements to
 real property under which  the  amount  payable  to  the  contractor  or
 subcontractor  is  fixed  without regard to the costs incurred by him in
 the performance thereof, and which  (i)  was  irrevocably  entered  into
 prior to the date of the enactment of this article or the enactment of a
 law  increasing  the  rate  of  tax  imposed under this article, or (ii)
 resulted from the acceptance by a governmental agency of a bid  accompa-
 nied  by  a  bond  or  other  performance guaranty which was irrevocably
 submitted prior to such date.) Where the tax on the sale or use of  such
 tangible  personal  property has been paid to the vendor, to qualify for
 such refund or credit, such tangible personal property must be  incorpo-
 rated  into  real property as required in clause (1) above, reshipped as
 required in clause (2) above, used in the manner  described  in  clauses
 (3), (4)[, (5)] and (6) above within three years after the date such tax
 was  payable  to  the  tax  commission by the vendor pursuant to section
 eleven hundred thirty-seven. Where the tax on the sale or  use  of  such
 tangible  personal  property was paid by the applicant for the credit or
 refund directly to the tax commission, to qualify  for  such  refund  or
 credit,  such  tangible personal property must be incorporated into real
 property as required in clause  (1)  above,  reshipped  as  required  in
 clause  (2)  above,  used  in the manner described in clauses (3), (4)[,
 (5)] and (6) above within three years after the date such tax was  paya-
 ble to the tax commission by such applicant pursuant to this article. An
 application  for  a  refund  or  credit pursuant to this section must be
 filed with such commission within the time provided by  subdivision  (a)
 of section eleven hundred thirty-nine. Such application shall be in such
 form as the tax commission may prescribe. Where an application for cred-
 it has been filed, the applicant may immediately take such credit on the
 return  which  is  due  coincident with or immediately subsequent to the
 time that he files his application for credit. However,  the  taking  of
 the  credit  on the return shall be deemed to be part of the application
 for credit and shall be subject to the provisions in respect to applica-
 tions for credit in section eleven hundred thirty-nine  as  provided  in
 subdivision (e) of such section. With respect to a sale or use described
 in  clause  (3)  above  where  a  pre-existing  lump  sum  or unit price
 construction contract was irrevocably entered into prior to the date  of
 the  enactment of this article or the bid accompanied by the performance
 guaranty was irrevocably submitted to the governmental agency  prior  to
 such date, the purchaser or user shall be entitled to a refund or credit
 only  of  the  amount by which the tax on such sale or use imposed under

 S. 7509--C                         32                         A. 9509--C
 
 this article plus any tax imposed under the authority of  article  twen-
 ty-nine exceeds the amount computed by applying against such sale or use
 the  local  rate of tax, if any, in effect at the time such contract was
 entered into or such bid was submitted.
   In  the  case  of  the  enactment  of a law increasing the rate of tax
 imposed by this article, the purchaser or user shall be entitled only to
 a refund or credit of the amount by which the increased tax on such sale
 or use imposed under this article plus any tax imposed under the author-
 ity of article twenty-nine  exceeds  the  amount  computed  by  applying
 against  such  sale or use the state and local rates of tax in effect at
 the time such contract was entered into or such bid was submitted.
   § 3. This act shall take effect June 1, 2018, and shall apply to sales
 made and uses occurring on and after such date.

 employee of a partnership, any employee or manager of a limited  liabil-
 ity company, or any employee of an individual proprietorship who as such

 (b) of section eleven hundred one OF THIS ARTICLE shall not be a "person
 required to collect any tax imposed by this article" until  twenty  days
 after the date by which such person is required to file a certificate of
 registration  pursuant  to  section  eleven  hundred thirty-four OF THIS
 PART.
   § 2. Subdivision (a) of section 1133 of the tax  law,  as  amended  by

 SION  AND  IN  section  eleven  hundred thirty-seven OF THIS PART, every
 person required to collect any tax imposed  by  this  article  shall  be
 personally  liable  for  the  tax  imposed,  collected or required to be
 collected under this article. Any such person shall have the same  right
 in  respect  to  collecting  the  tax from his customer or in respect to
 nonpayment of the tax by the customer as if the tax were a part  of  the
 purchase  price of the property or service, amusement charge or rent, as
 the case may be, and payable at the same time; provided,  however,  that
 the  tax commission shall be joined as a party in any action or proceed-
 ing brought to collect the tax.

 COMPANY IN COMPLYING WITH ANY REQUIREMENT OF THIS ARTICLE  OR  HAS  BEEN
 CONVICTED  OF  A  CRIME  PROVIDED  IN THIS CHAPTER OR WHO HAS A PAST-DUE
 LIABILITY, AS SUCH TERM IS DEFINED IN SECTION ONE HUNDRED  SEVENTY-ONE-V

 LIMITED PARTNERSHIP OR LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY PURSUANT TO THIS SUBDI-
 VISION.
   (III) A LIMITED PARTNER OF A LIMITED PARTNERSHIP OR MEMBER OF A LIMIT-
 ED LIABILITY COMPANY, WHO MEETS THE REQUIREMENTS SET FORTH IN THIS PARA-
 GRAPH  AND WHOSE APPLICATION FOR RELIEF IS APPROVED BY THE COMMISSIONER,
 SHALL BE LIABLE FOR THE PERCENTAGE OF THE ORIGINAL  SALES  AND  USE  TAX
 LIABILITY  OF  THEIR RESPECTIVE LIMITED PARTNERSHIP OR LIMITED LIABILITY
 COMPANY THAT REFLECTS  SUCH  LIMITED  PARTNER'S  OR  MEMBER'S  OWNERSHIP
 INTEREST OF DISTRIBUTIVE SHARE OF THE PROFITS AND LOSSES OF SUCH LIMITED

 LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY OR ANY OTHER PARTNER OR MEMBER OF SUCH LIMITED
 PARTNERSHIP  OR LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY. ANY PAYMENT MADE BY A LIMITED
 PARTNER OR MEMBER PURSUANT TO THE PROVISIONS OF THIS PARAGRAPH SHALL NOT
 BE CREDITED AGAINST THE LIABILITY OF OTHER LIMITED PARTNERS  OR  MEMBERS

 AMOUNTS OWED BY ALL OF THE PERSONS REQUIRED TO COLLECT TAX OF A  LIMITED
 PARTNERSHIP  OR  LIMITED  LIABILITY  COMPANY  SHALL NOT EXCEED THE TOTAL

 located  within  such  towns.  The cash payments to the villages located

 population of each village bears to the total population of the villages
 located within the county. The term population as used in  this  section
 shall  have  the same meaning as used in subdivision (b) of section 1262

 follows:
   (a) Any  racing  association  or  corporation  or  regional  off-track
 betting  corporation,  authorized  to conduct pari-mutuel wagering under
 this chapter, desiring to display the simulcast of horse races on  which
 pari-mutuel  betting shall be permitted in the manner and subject to the
 conditions provided for in this article may apply to the commission  for
 a  license  so to do. Applications for licenses shall be in such form as
 may be prescribed by the commission and shall contain  such  information

 or  other material or evidence as the commission may require. No license
 shall be issued by the commission authorizing the simulcast transmission
 of thoroughbred races from a track located in Suffolk  county.  The  fee
 for  such  licenses shall be five hundred dollars per simulcast facility
 and for account wagering licensees that do not operate either  a  simul-
 cast facility that is open to the public within the state of New York or
 a  licensed racetrack within the state, twenty thousand dollars per year
 payable by the licensee to the commission for deposit into  the  general
 fund.  Except  as  provided  in  this  section, the commission shall not
 approve any application to conduct simulcasting into individual or group
 residences, homes or other areas for the purposes of  or  in  connection
 with  pari-mutuel wagering. The commission may approve simulcasting into
 residences, homes or other areas to be conducted jointly by one or  more
 regional  off-track  betting corporations and one or more of the follow-
 ing: a franchised corporation,  thoroughbred  racing  corporation  or  a
 harness racing corporation or association; provided (i) the simulcasting
 consists  only of those races on which pari-mutuel betting is authorized
 by this chapter at one or more simulcast  facilities  for  each  of  the
 contracting  off-track  betting  corporations which shall include wagers
 made in accordance with  section  one  thousand  fifteen,  one  thousand
 sixteen  and  one  thousand  seventeen of this article; provided further
 that the contract provisions or other simulcast  arrangements  for  such
 simulcast  facility  shall  be no less favorable than those in effect on
 January first, two thousand  five;  (ii)  that  each  off-track  betting
 corporation  having  within  its  geographic boundaries such residences,
 homes or other areas technically  capable  of  receiving  the  simulcast
 signal  shall be a contracting party; (iii) the distribution of revenues
 shall be subject to contractual agreement of  the  parties  except  that
 statutory  payments  to  non-contracting  parties,  if  any,  may not be
 reduced; provided, however, that nothing herein to  the  contrary  shall
 prevent a track from televising its races on an irregular basis primari-
 ly for promotional or marketing purposes as found by the commission. For
 purposes of this paragraph, the provisions of section one thousand thir-
 teen  of  this  article  shall  not  apply. Any agreement authorizing an
 in-home simulcasting experiment commencing prior to May fifteenth, nine-
 teen hundred ninety-five, may, and all its terms, be extended until June
 thirtieth, two thousand [eighteen] NINETEEN; provided, however, that any
 party to such agreement may  elect  to  terminate  such  agreement  upon
 conveying written notice to all other parties of such agreement at least
 forty-five  days  prior  to  the  effective date of the termination, via
 registered mail. Any party to an agreement receiving such notice  of  an
 intent  to  terminate, may request the commission to mediate between the
 parties new terms and conditions in a replacement agreement between  the
 parties  as will permit continuation of an in-home experiment until June
 thirtieth, two thousand [eighteen] NINETEEN; and (iv) no in-home  simul-
 casting in the thoroughbred special betting district shall occur without
 the approval of the regional thoroughbred track.
   §  2.  Subparagraph  (iii)  of paragraph d of subdivision 3 of section

 commencing January first, two thousand eight and continuing through June
 thirtieth, two thousand [eighteen] NINETEEN, the amount used exclusively
 for purses to be awarded at races  conducted  by  such  receiving  track

 shall  be computed as follows: of the sums so retained, two and one-half
 percent of the total pools. Such amount shall be increased or  decreased
 in  the  amount  of fifty percent of the difference in total commissions
 determined by comparing the total commissions available after July twen-
 ty-first,  nineteen  hundred  ninety-five  to the total commissions that
 would have been available to such  track  prior  to  July  twenty-first,

 article  nine-A  of  this chapter, or fails to pay all or any part of an
 amount which is applied as an installment against such estimated tax, it
 shall be deemed to have made an underpayment  of  estimated  tax.  There
 shall  be  added to the tax for the taxable year an amount at the under-
 payment rate set by the commissioner pursuant to  section  one  thousand
 ninety-six  of  this article, or if no rate is set, at the rate of seven
 and one-half percent per annum upon the amount of the  underpayment  for
 the  period  of the underpayment but not beyond the fifteenth day of the

 of  estimated  tax  computed on the basis of either the preceding year's
 tax or the second  preceding  year's  tax,  the  excess  of  the  amount
 required  to be paid over the amount, if any, paid on or before the last
 day prescribed for such payment or, with respect to any  other  install-
 ment of estimated tax, the excess of the amount of the installment which
 would  be required to be paid if the estimated tax were equal to ninety-

 no  return  was filed, ninety-one percent of the tax for such year) over
 the amount, if any, of the installment paid on or before  the  last  day
 prescribed  for  such  payment.  In  any case in which there would be no
 underpayment  if  "eighty  percent"  were  substituted  for  "ninety-one
 percent"  each  place it appears in this subsection, the addition to the
 tax shall be equal to  seventy-five  percent  of  the  amount  otherwise
 determined.  No  underpayment shall be deemed to exist with respect to a

 tax.   There shall be added to the tax for the taxable year an amount at
 the underpayment rate set by the commissioner  of  finance  pursuant  to
 section 11-687 of this subchapter, or, if no rate is set, at the rate of
 seven and one-half percent per annum upon the amount of the underpayment
 for  the  period of the underpayment but not beyond the fifteenth day of
 the [third] FOURTH month  following  the  close  of  the  taxable  year.
 PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT, FOR TAXABLE YEARS BEGINNING ON OR AFTER JANUARY

 EIGHTEEN, NO AMOUNT SHALL BE ADDED  TO  THE  TAX  WITH  RESPECT  TO  THE
 PORTION  OF  SUCH  TAX  RELATED TO THE AMOUNT OF ANY INTEREST DEDUCTIONS

 INCOME PURSUANT TO SUBPARAGRAPH (II) OF  PARAGRAPH  (B)  OF  SUBDIVISION

 to  any installment of estimated tax computed on the basis of EITHER the
 preceding year's tax OR THE SECOND PRECEDING YEAR'S TAX, the  excess  of
 the  amount  required  to  be  paid  over the amount, if any, paid on or
 before the last day prescribed for such payment or, with respect to  any
 other  installment  of  estimated  tax,  the excess of the amount of the
 installment which would be required to be paid if the estimated tax were
 equal to ninety percent of the tax shown on the return for  the  taxable
 year  (or  if  no  return  was filed, ninety percent of the tax for such
 year) over the amount, if any, of the installment paid on or before  the
 last  day  prescribed for such payment. In any case in which there would
 be no underpayment if "eighty  percent"  were  substituted  for  "ninety
 percent"  each place it appears in this subdivision, the addition to the
 tax shall be equal to  seventy-five  percent  of  the  amount  otherwise
 determined.  No  underpayment shall be deemed to exist with respect to a
 declaration or installment otherwise due on or after the termination  of
 existence of the taxpayer.

 subdivision  shall be considered qualified contributions for purposes of
 the tax credit available pursuant to subsection (iii) of section 606  of
 the tax law.
   (a)   Applications   for   contribution   authorization  certificates.
 Contributors seeking to make a qualified contribution to the corporation
 shall apply to the corporation for a contribution authorization  certif-
 icate  for  such contribution. Such application shall be in the form and
 manner prescribed by the corporation. The corporation may allow contrib-
 utors to make multiple applications on the same form, provided that each
 contribution listed on such application shall be treated as  a  separate
 application  and  that the corporation shall issue separate contribution
 authorization certificates for each such application.
   (b) Contribution authorization and receipt certificates. (i)  Issuance
 of  certificates.  The president of the corporation shall issue contrib-
 ution authorization certificates in two  phases.  In  phase  one,  which
 begins  on  the  first  day  of January and ends on the thirtieth day of

 received  during phase one exceeds the amount of the contribution cap in
 paragraph (e) of this subdivision, the  authorized  contribution  amount
 listed  on  each  contribution authorization certificate shall equal the
 pro-rata share of the contribution cap. If the contribution cap  is  not
 exceeded,  phase  two  commences  on  October first and ends on November
 fifteenth, during which period the president of  the  corporation  shall
 issue  contribution  authorization  certificates  on a first-come first-

 available contribution cap by a fraction, the numerator of which  equals
 the  total  contribution  amount listed on the contributor's application
 and the denominator of which equals the  aggregate  amount  of  contrib-
 utions listed on the applications for contribution authorization certif-
 icates  received  on such day.   Contribution authorization certificates

 authorized  contribution  is required to be made, the corporation shall,

 contributor  a  written  certificate  of  receipt.  Each  certificate of
 receipt shall state: (i) the name and address of the  corporation;  (ii)
 the  contributor's  name  and  address; (iii) the date for each contrib-
 ution; (iv) the  amount  of  each  contribution  and  the  corresponding
 contribution  authorization  certificate number; (v) the total amount of

 shall, within thirty days of issuing the certificate of receipt, provide
 the department of taxation and finance with notification of the issuance
 of such certificate in the form and manner prescribed by the  department
 of taxation and finance.
   (e)  Contribution  cap. The maximum permitted contributions under this
 section available annually for calendar year two thousand  eighteen  and

 ment laboratory facilities and programs, including, but not limited  to,

   (a)   Applications   for   contribution   authorization  certificates.
 Contributors seeking to make a qualified contribution to the SUNY  foun-
 dation  or  the  CUNY  foundation  shall  apply to such foundation for a
 contribution  authorization  certificate  for  such  contribution.  Such
 application  shall  be  in  the form and manner prescribed by the corpo-
 ration. Each foundation may allow contributors to make multiple applica-
 tions on the same form, provided that each contribution listed  on  such
 application  shall  be  treated  as  a separate application and that the
 foundation shall issue separate contribution authorization  certificates
 for each such application.
   (b)  Contribution authorization and receipt certificates. (i) Issuance
 of certificates. The head of each foundation  shall  issue  contribution
 authorization  certificates in two phases. In phase one, which begins on
 the first day of January and ends on the thirtieth day of September, the
 head of each  foundation  shall  accept  applications  for  contribution
 authorization  certificates,  but shall not issue any such certificates.
 Commencing after the first day of October, the head of  each  foundation
 shall  issue  contribution  authorization  certificates for applications
 received during phase one, provided that if the aggregate total  of  the
 contributions for which applications have been received during phase one
 exceeds  the  amount  of  the  contribution cap in paragraph (e) of this
 subdivision, the authorized contribution amount listed on each  contrib-
 ution  authorization  certificate  shall equal the pro-rata share of the
 contribution cap. If the contribution cap is  not  exceeded,  phase  two
 commences  on October first and ends on November fifteenth, during which
 period the head of each foundation  shall  issue  contribution  authori-
 zation  certificates  on  a first-come first-served basis based upon the
 date the foundation received  the  contributor's  application  for  such
 certificate;  provided,  however, that if on any day the SUNY foundation
 or the CUNY foundation  receives  applications  requesting  contribution
 authorization  certificates  for  contributions  that  in  the aggregate
 exceed the amount of the remaining available contribution  cap  on  such
 day,  the  authorized  contribution  amount  listed in each contribution
 authorization certificate shall be the contributor's pro-rata  share  of
 the  remaining available contribution cap. For purposes of determining a
 contributor's pro-rata share of remaining  available  contribution  cap,
 the  head  of  each  foundation  shall  multiply the amount of remaining
 available contribution cap by a fraction, the numerator of which  equals
 the  total  contribution  amount listed on the contributor's application
 and the denominator of which equals the  aggregate  amount  of  contrib-
 utions listed on the applications for contribution authorization certif-
 icates received on such day. Contribution authorization certificates for
 applications received during phase one shall be mailed no later than the
 fifteenth  day  of  October. Contribution authorization certificates for
 applications received during phase two shall  be  mailed  within  twenty
 days  of  receipt  of  such  applications.  Provided,  however,  that no
 contribution authorization certificates for applications received during
 phase two shall be issued until all of  the  contribution  authorization
 certificates  for  applications  received  during  phase  one  have been
 issued.
   (ii) Contribution authorization certificate  contents.  Each  contrib-
 ution  authorization  certificate shall state: (A) the date such certif-
 icate was issued; (B) the date by  which  the  authorized  contributions
 listed  in  the  certificate  must be made, which shall be no later than
 November thirtieth of the year for which the contribution  authorization
 certificate  was issued; (C) the contributor's name and address; (D) the

 Each certificate of receipt shall state: (i) the name and address of the
 foundation; (ii) the contributor's name and address; (iii) the date  for
 each  contribution;  (iv) the amount of each contribution and the corre-
 sponding contribution authorization certificate number;  (v)  the  total

 COLLECTING OFFICER'S RECEIPT OF THE TAX WARRANT, OR SUCH OTHER  DATE  AS

 SUCH  LOCAL LAW OR RESOLUTION SHALL NOT TAKE EFFECT UNLESS AND UNTIL THE
 GOVERNING BODY OF THE MUNICIPAL CORPORATION THAT EMPLOYS THE  COLLECTING

 and duties and to pay for any of its  liabilities  under  section  four-
 teen-a  of  the  workers'  compensation  law, the New York Jockey Injury
 Compensation Fund, Inc. shall ascertain the total funding necessary  and
 establish  the  sums  that  are  to  be  paid by all owners and trainers
 licensed or required to be licensed under section two hundred twenty  of

 order to provide that any sum required to be paid by an owner or trainer

 such  factors  as  are  appropriate,  including  where  applicable,  the
 geographic location of the racing corporation  at  which  the  owner  or
 trainer  participates, the duration of such participation, the amount of
 any purse earnings, the number of horses involved, or such other factors
 as the fund shall determine to be fair, equitable and in the best inter-
 ests of racing. In no event shall the amount deducted  from  an  owner's
 share  of purses exceed two per centum; provided, however, for two thou-
 sand [seventeen] EIGHTEEN the New York Jockey Injury Compensation  Fund,
 Inc.  may  use  up  to  two million dollars from the account established
 pursuant to subdivision nine of section two hundred eight of this  arti-
 cle  to pay the annual costs required by this section and the funds from
 such account shall not count  against  the  two  per  centum  of  purses
 deducted  from  an  owner's share of purses. The amount deducted from an
 owner's share of purses shall not exceed  one  per  centum  after  April
 first,  two  thousand  twenty.  In  the cases of multiple ownerships and
 limited racing appearances, the fund  shall  equitably  adjust  the  sum
 required.

 projected  to be deposited in the succeeding fiscal year shall, notwith-
 standing the provisions of section forty of this chapter, take effect on
 the first day of such succeeding fiscal year and lapse on the  last  day
 of  such  fiscal year. If for any fiscal year commencing on or after the
 first day of April, two thousand ten the  governor  fails  to  submit  a
 budget  bill containing the foregoing, or the legislature fails to enact
 a bill  with  such  provisions,  then  the  metropolitan  transportation
 authority  shall notify the comptroller, the director of the budget, the
 chairperson of the senate finance committee and the chairperson  of  the
 assembly  ways  and  means committee of amounts required to be disbursed
 from the appropriation made during the preceding fiscal year for payment
 in such fiscal year. In no event shall the comptroller make any payments
 from such appropriation prior to May first  of  such  fiscal  year,  and
 unless  and  until  the  director  of the budget, the chairperson of the
 senate finance committee and the chairperson of the  assembly  ways  and
 means  committee  have  been  notified  of the required payments and the
 timing of such payments to be made from the mobility tax  trust  account
 to the metropolitan transportation authority finance fund established by
 section  twelve hundred seventy-h of the public authorities law at least
 forty-eight hours prior  to  any  such  payments.  Until  such  time  as
 payments  pursuant  to  such appropriation are made in full, revenues in
 the mobility tax trust account shall not be  paid  over  to  any  person
 other than the metropolitan transportation authority.
   § 15. This act shall take effect April 1, 2018; provided however, that
 the  amendments  to section 399-l of the vehicle and traffic law made by
 section one of this act shall not affect the repeal of such section  and
 shall  be deemed repealed therewith; and provided further, however, that

 bulk system operator (BSO) serving the state of New York of  its  intent
 to retire the facility or of its intent to voluntarily remove the facil-

 service  shall  confirm  such information with the BSO. In the case that
 the BSO confirms to the department of public service that  the  facility
 is no longer producing electricity and participating in markets operated

 located within the local government entity  has  ceased  operation.  The
 department  of  public  service  shall  provide such confirmation to the
 urban development corporation upon receipt.  The  determination  of  the
 amount  of  such  annual payment shall be determined by the president of
 the urban development corporation based on the amount of  the  differen-
 tial  between  the  annual  real  property taxes and payments in lieu of
 taxes imposed upon the facility, exclusive of  interest  and  penalties,
 during  the  last year of operations and the current real property taxes
 and payments in lieu of taxes imposed upon the  facility,  exclusive  of
 interest and penalties. The total amount awarded from this program shall
 not exceed [$45,000,000] $69,000,000.
   §  2.  This  act shall take effect immediately provided, however, that
 the amendments to section 1 of subpart H of part C of chapter 20 of  the

 of such subpart and shall be deemed repealed therewith.

   § 42. Paragraph (c) of subdivision 19 of section 1680  of  the  public
 authorities  law,  as amended by section 35 of part XXX of chapter 59 of
 the laws of 2017, is amended to read as follows:
   (c) Subject to the provisions of chapter fifty-nine of the laws of two
 thousand, the dormitory authority shall not issue any  bonds  for  state
 university  educational  facilities  purposes if the principal amount of
 bonds to be issued when added to the aggregate principal amount of bonds
 issued by the dormitory authority on  and  after  July  first,  nineteen
 hundred  eighty-eight  for  state university educational facilities will
 exceed [twelve]  THIRTEEN  billion  [three]  ONE  hundred  [forty-three]
 SEVENTY-EIGHT   million   EIGHT   HUNDRED  SIXTY-FOUR  THOUSAND  dollars
 $13,178,864,000; provided, however, that bonds issued or  to  be  issued
 shall  be excluded from such limitation if: (1) such bonds are issued to
 refund  state  university  construction  bonds  and   state   university
 construction  notes  previously issued by the housing finance agency; or
 (2) such bonds are issued to refund bonds  of  the  authority  or  other
 obligations  issued for state university educational facilities purposes
 and the present value of the aggregate debt  service  on  the  refunding
 bonds does not exceed the present value of the aggregate debt service on

 the bonds refunded thereby; provided, further that upon certification by
 the director of the budget that the issuance of refunding bonds or other
 obligations  issued between April first, nineteen hundred ninety-two and
 March  thirty-first,  nineteen  hundred  ninety-three will generate long
 term economic benefits to the state, as  assessed  on  a  present  value
 basis,  such  issuance will be deemed to have met the present value test
 noted above. For purposes of this subdivision, the present value of  the
 aggregate  debt  service  of  the refunding bonds and the aggregate debt
 service of the bonds refunded, shall be calculated by utilizing the true
 interest cost of the refunding bonds, which shall be that  rate  arrived
 at  by doubling the semi-annual interest rate (compounded semi-annually)
 necessary to discount the debt service payments on the  refunding  bonds
 from  the  payment  dates  thereof to the date of issue of the refunding
 bonds to the purchase price of the refunding bonds,  including  interest
 accrued  thereon  prior  to  the  issuance thereof. The maturity of such
 bonds, other than bonds issued to refund outstanding  bonds,  shall  not
 exceed  the  weighted  average  economic life, as certified by the state
 university construction fund, of the facilities in connection with which
 the bonds are issued, and in any case not  later  than  the  earlier  of
 thirty  years  or  the  expiration of the term of any lease, sublease or
 other agreement relating  thereto;  provided  that  no  note,  including
 renewals  thereof,  shall mature later than five years after the date of
 issuance of such note. The legislature reserves the right  to  amend  or
 repeal  such  limit, and the state of New York, the dormitory authority,
 the state university of New York, and the state university  construction
 fund are prohibited from covenanting or making any other agreements with
 or  for  the  benefit  of bondholders which might in any way affect such
 right.

 or  to  be substituted for or in lieu of other bonds in relation to city
 university community college facilities pursuant to a resolution of  the
 dormitory  authority adopted before July first, nineteen hundred eighty-
 five or any resolution supplemental thereto, if the principal amount  of
 bonds  so  to  be  issued  when  added to all principal amounts of bonds
 previously issued by the dormitory authority for city university  commu-
 nity  college  facilities, except to refund or to be substituted in lieu
 of other bonds in relation to city university community college  facili-
 ties will exceed the sum of four hundred twenty-five million dollars and
 (ii)  the dormitory authority shall not deliver a series of bonds issued
 for city university facilities, including community college  facilities,
 pursuant  to a resolution of the dormitory authority adopted on or after
 July first, nineteen hundred eighty-five, except  to  refund  or  to  be
 substituted for or in lieu of other bonds in relation to city university
 facilities  and except for bonds issued pursuant to a resolution supple-
 mental to a resolution of the dormitory authority adopted prior to  July
 first, nineteen hundred eighty-five, if the principal amount of bonds so
 to  be  issued  when  added  to the principal amount of bonds previously
 issued pursuant to any such resolution, except bonds issued to refund or
 to be substituted for or in lieu of other  bonds  in  relation  to  city
 university  facilities,  will  exceed [seven] EIGHT billion [nine] THREE

 from  covenanting or making any other agreements with or for the benefit
 of bondholders which might in any way affect such right.

   a. Foundation formula aid. Foundation  formula  aid  shall  equal  the
 remainder  when  the  expected  minimum local contribution is subtracted
 from the product of the foundation amount, the regional cost index,  and
 the  pupil  need  index,  or: (foundation amount x regional cost index x
 pupil need index)- expected minimum local contribution.
   (1) The foundation amount shall reflect the average per pupil cost  of
 general  education instruction in successful school districts, as deter-
 mined by a statistical analysis of the costs of  special  education  and
 general  education  in  successful  school  districts, provided that the
 foundation amount shall be adjusted annually to reflect  the  percentage
 increase  in  the  consumer price index [as computed pursuant to section
 two thousand twenty-two of this chapter] AS DEFINED BY PARAGRAPH  HH  OF
 SUBDIVISION  ONE  OF  THIS  SECTION,  provided that for the two thousand
 eight--two thousand nine school year, for the purpose  of  such  adjust-

 deemed to be two and nine-tenths percent (0.029), and  provided  further
 that  the  foundation  amount  for  the two thousand seven--two thousand
 eight school  year  shall  be  five  thousand  two  hundred  fifty-eight
 dollars, and provided further that for the two thousand seven--two thou-
 sand  eight through two thousand seventeen--two thousand eighteen school
 years, the foundation amount shall be further adjusted by  the  phase-in
 foundation  percent established pursuant to paragraph b of this subdivi-
 sion.
   (2) The regional cost index shall reflect an analysis of labor  market
 costs  based on median salaries in professional occupations that require
 similar credentials to those of positions in the  education  field,  but
 not  including  those  occupations in the education field, provided that
 the regional cost indices for the two thousand seven--two thousand eight
 school year and thereafter shall be as follows:
           Labor Force Region  Index
           Capital District    1.124

           Mohawk Valley       1.000
           North Country       1.000
   (3) The pupil need index shall equal the sum of one plus the  extraor-
 dinary needs percent, provided, however, that the pupil need index shall
 not  be less than one nor more than two. The extraordinary needs percent
 shall be calculated pursuant to paragraph w of subdivision one  of  this
 section.
   (4)  The expected minimum local contribution shall equal the lesser of
 (i) the product of (A) the quotient arrived at when the selected  actual
 valuation  is divided by total wealth foundation pupil units, multiplied
 by (B) the product of the local tax factor,  multiplied  by  the  income

 S. 7509--C                         125                        A. 9509--C
 
 wealth  index,  or (ii) the product of (A) the product of the foundation
 amount, the regional cost index, and the pupil need index, multiplied by
 (B) the positive difference, if any, of  one  minus  the  state  sharing
 ratio  for  total  foundation  aid. The local tax factor shall be estab-
 lished by May first of each year by determining the product, computed to
 four decimal places without rounding, of ninety  percent  multiplied  by
 the quotient of the sum of the statewide average tax rate as computed by
 the  commissioner for the current year in accordance with the provisions
 of paragraph e of subdivision one of section thirty-six  hundred  nine-e
 of this part plus the statewide average tax rate computed by the commis-
 sioner  for  the  base  year in accordance with such provisions plus the
 statewide average tax rate computed by the  commissioner  for  the  year
 prior  to  the  base year in accordance with such provisions, divided by
 three, provided however that for the two  thousand  seven--two  thousand
 eight  school  year,  such local tax factor shall be sixteen thousandths
 (0.016), and provided further that for the two thousand eight--two thou-
 sand nine school year, such  local  tax  factor  shall  be  one  hundred
 fifty-four  ten  thousandths  (0.0154). The income wealth index shall be
 calculated pursuant to paragraph d of subdivision three of this section,
 provided, however, that for the purposes of computing the expected mini-
 mum local contribution the income wealth index shall not  be  less  than
 sixty-five percent (0.65) and shall not be more than two hundred percent
 (2.0)  and  provided  however that such income wealth index shall not be
 more than ninety-five percent (0.95) for  the  two  thousand  eight--two
 thousand  nine school year, and provided further that such income wealth
 index shall not be less than zero for  the  two  thousand  thirteen--two

 shall  equal  the  product  of  the  phase-in foundation increase factor
 multiplied by the positive difference, if any, of (i) the product of the
 total aidable  foundation  pupil  units  multiplied  by  the  district's
 selected foundation aid less (ii) the total foundation aid base computed
 pursuant to paragraph j of subdivision one of this section.

   §  4. Notwithstanding any general, special or local law, rule or regu-

 act, for any public work that has an estimated total cost  of  not  less

 agreement in accordance with section 222 of the labor law, an authorized
 entity charged with awarding a contract for  public  work  may  use  the
 alternative delivery method referred to as design-build contracts.
   (a)  A  contractor  selected by such authorized entity to enter into a
 design-build contract shall be selected through a  two-step  method,  as
 follows:
   (1)  Step  one.  Generation of a list of responding entities that have
 demonstrated  the  general  capability  to  perform   the   design-build
 contract.  Such  list  shall consist of a specified number of responding
 entities, as determined by an authorized entity, and shall be  generated
 based  upon  the  authorized  entity's review of responses to a publicly
 advertised request for qualifications.  The authorized entity's  request
 for  qualifications  shall  include  a general description of the public
 work, the maximum number of responding entities to be  included  on  the
 list,  the selection criteria to be used and the relative weight of each
 criteria in generating the list. Such selection criteria  shall  include
 the  qualifications  and experience of the design and construction team,
 organization, demonstrated responsibility, ability of the team or  of  a
 member  or  members  of the team to comply with applicable requirements,
 including the provisions of articles 145, 147, and 148 of the  education
 law, past record of compliance with the labor law, and such other quali-
 fications the authorized entity deems appropriate, which may include but
 are  not  limited  to  project  understanding,  financial capability and
 record of past performance. The authorized  entity  shall  evaluate  and
 rate  all  responding  entities to the request for qualifications. Based
 upon such ratings, the authorized entity shall list the responding enti-
 ties that shall receive a request for proposals in accordance with para-
 graph two of this subdivision.  To the extent consistent with applicable
 federal law, the authorized entity shall  consider,  when  awarding  any
 contract  pursuant  to this section, the participation of (i) responding
 entities that are certified as minority- or women-owned business  enter-
 prises  pursuant  to  article  15-A  of  the executive law, or certified
 pursuant to local law as minority- or women-owned business  enterprises;
 and  (ii) small business concerns identified pursuant to subdivision (b)
 of section 139-g of the state finance law.
   (2) Step two. Selection of the proposal which is the best value to the
 authorized entity. The authorized  entity  shall  issue  a  request  for
 proposals to the responding entities listed pursuant to paragraph one of
 this  subdivision.  If  such  a  responding entity consists of a team of
 separate entities, the entities that compromise such a team must  remain
 unchanged from the responding entity as listed pursuant to paragraph one
 of  this subdivision unless otherwise approved by the authorized entity.
 The request for proposals shall set forth the  public  work's  scope  of
 work,  and  other  requirements, as determined by the authorized entity,
 which may include separate goals for  work  under  the  contract  to  be
 performed  by  businesses certified as minority- or women-owned business
 enterprises pursuant to article 15-A of the executive law, or  certified
 pursuant  to local law as minority- or women-owned business enterprises.
 The request for proposals shall also specify the criteria to be used  to
 evaluate the responses and the relative weight of each of such criteria.
 Such  criteria  shall  include  the  proposal's cost, the quality of the

 S. 7509--C                         164                        A. 9509--C
 
 proposal's solution, the qualifications and experience of the  proposer,
 and  other  factors deemed pertinent by the authorized entity, which may
 include, but shall not be limited to, the proposal's manner and schedule
 of  project  implementation, the proposer's ability to complete the work
 in a timely and satisfactory manner, maintenance costs of the  completed
 public  work, maintenance of traffic approach, and community impact. Any
 contract awarded pursuant to this act shall be awarded to  a  responsive
 and  responsible  proposer,  which,  in consideration of these and other
 specified criteria deemed pertinent, offers the best  value,  as  deter-
 mined  by the authorized entity. The request for proposals shall include
 a statement that proposers shall designate in writing those portions  of
 the proposal that contain trade secrets or other proprietary information
 that  are to remain confidential; that the material designated as confi-
 dential shall be readily separable from the proposal.  Nothing  in  this
 subdivision  shall  be  construed to prohibit the authorized entity from
 negotiating final contract terms  and  conditions  including  cost.  All
 proposals  submitted shall be scored according to the criteria listed in
 the request for proposals and such final scores shall  be  published  on
 the authorized entity's website.
   (b)  An  authorized  entity  awarding  a  design-build  contract  to a
 contractor offering the best value may but shall not be required to  use
 the following types of contracts:
   (1)  A  cost-plus  not  to  exceed  guaranteed  maximum  price form of
 contract in which the authorized entity shall be entitled to monitor and
 audit all costs. In establishing the schedule and process for  determin-
 ing  a  guaranteed  maximum  price,  the contract between the authorized
 entity and the contractor shall:
   (i) Describe the scope of the work and the  cost  of  performing  such
 work,
   (ii) Include a detailed line item cost breakdown,
   (iii)  Include a list of all drawings, specifications and other infor-
 mation on which the guaranteed maximum price is based,
   (iv) Include the dates of substantial and final  completion  on  which
 the guaranteed maximum price is based, and
   (v) Include a schedule of unit prices; or
   (2) A lump sum contract in which the contractor agrees to accept a set
 dollar  amount  for  a  contract  which  comprises  a single bid without
 providing a cost breakdown for all costs such as for  equipment,  labor,
 materials,  as well as such contractor's profit for completing all items
 of work comprising the public work.
   § 5. Any contract entered into pursuant to this act  shall  include  a
 clause  requiring  that  any professional services regulated by articles
 145, 147 and 148 of the education law shall be performed and stamped and
 sealed, where appropriate, by a professional licensed in accordance with
 the appropriate articles.
   § 6. Construction or reconstruction  with  respect  to  each  contract
 entered  into  by  an  authorized  entity  pursuant to this act shall be
 deemed a "public work" to be performed in accordance with the provisions
 of article 8 of the labor law, as well as subject to sections 200,  240,
 241  and 242 of such law and enforcement of prevailing wage requirements
 pursuant to applicable law or, for projects or  public  works  receiving
 federal  aid,  applicable  federal requirements for prevailing wage. Any
 contract entered into pursuant  to  this  act  shall  include  a  clause
 requiring the selected design builder to obligate every tier of contrac-
 tor  working  on the public work to comply with the project labor agree-
 ment referenced in section three of this act, and shall include  project

 labor   agreement   compliance  monitoring  and  enforcement  provisions
 consistent with the applicable project labor agreement.

 this act shall comply with the  objectives  and  goals  with  regard  to
 minority-  and women-owned business enterprises pursuant to, as applica-
 ble, section 6-129 of the administrative code of the city of  New  York,
 or,  for  projects  or  public  works  receiving federal aid, applicable
 federal requirements for disadvantaged business enterprises or minority-
 and women-owned business enterprises.
   § 8. Public works undertaken by an authorized entity pursuant to  this
 act  shall  be  subject to the requirements of article 8 of the environ-
 mental conservation law, and, where applicable, the requirements of  the
 national environmental policy act.
   §  9.  (a)  Notwithstanding  any provision of law to the contrary, all
 rights or benefits, including terms and conditions  of  employment,  and
 protection  of  civil  service  and  collective bargaining status of all
 employees of authorized entities solely in connection  with  the  public
 works identified in subdivision (f) of section two of this act, shall be
 preserved and protected.
   (b)  Nothing  in this act shall result in the: (1) displacement of any
 currently  employed  worker  or  loss  of  position  (including  partial
 displacement  such  as  a  reduction  in the hours of non-overtime work,
 wages or employment benefits), or result in the impairment  of  existing
 collective  bargaining  agreements;  and (2) transfer of existing duties
 and functions related to maintenance and operations currently  performed
 by existing employees of authorized entities to a contractor.
   (c)  Employees  of  authorized  entities  using design-build contracts
 serving in positions in newly created titles shall be  assigned  to  the
 appropriate  bargaining  unit.  Nothing  contained  in this act shall be
 construed to affect (1) the existing rights of employees of  such  enti-
 ties  pursuant  to  an existing collective bargaining agreement, (2) the
 existing representational  relationships  among  employee  organizations
 representing employees of such entities, or (3) the bargaining relation-
 ships between such entities and such employee organizations.
   §  10. The submission of a proposal or responses or the execution of a
 design-build contract pursuant to this act shall not be construed to  be
 a violation of section 6512 of the education law.

   (d) "Design-build contract" shall mean a contract for the  design  and
 construction  of a public work with a single entity, which may be a team
 comprised of separate entities.
   (e)  "Project  labor  agreement"  shall  have the meaning set forth in
 subdivision 1 of section 222 of the labor law. A project labor agreement
 shall require participation in apprentice training programs  in  accord-
 ance with paragraph (e) of subdivision 2 of such section.
   (f)  "Public  work"  shall  mean a public work in the city of New York
 related to the following, and shall  refer  to  this  public  work;  the
 construction  or  reconstruction  of residential properties owned by the

 struction  is  required to remediate certain conditions of habitability,
 including but not limited to, roof repair, lead or  mold  abatement  and
 remediation,  plumbing  installation  or  repair, boiler installation or
 repair, or any structural  repair  where  such  construction  or  recon-
 struction  is  deemed  necessary in accordance with the terms of a state
 declaration of a disaster emergency pursuant to  section  402-d  of  the
 public housing law.
   §  3.  Any contract for a public work undertaken pursuant to a project
 labor agreement in accordance with section 222 of the labor law may be a
 design-build contract in accordance with this act.
   § 4. Notwithstanding any general, special or local law, rule or  regu-
 lation  to the contrary, including but not limited to article 5-A of the
 general municipal law, section 151 of the public  housing  law,  and  in
 conformity  with  the requirements of this act, for any public work that
 is undertaken pursuant to a project labor agreement in  accordance  with
 section 222 of the labor law, an authorized entity charged with awarding
 a  contract  for  public  work  may  use the alternative delivery method
 referred to as design-build contracts.
   (a) A contractor selected by such authorized entity to  enter  into  a
 design-build  contract  shall  be selected through a two-step method, as
 follows:
   (1) Step one. Generation of a list of responding  entities  that  have
 demonstrated   the   general  capability  to  perform  the  design-build
 contract. Such list shall consist of a specified  number  of  responding
 entities,  as determined by an authorized entity, and shall be generated
 based upon the authorized entity's review of  responses  to  a  publicly
 advertised  request for qualifications.  The authorized entity's request
 for qualifications shall include a general  description  of  the  public
 work,  the  maximum  number of responding entities to be included on the
 list, the selection criteria to be used and the relative weight of  each
 criteria  in  generating the list. Such selection criteria shall include
 the qualifications and experience of the design and  construction  team,
 organization,  demonstrated  responsibility, ability of the team or of a
 member or members of the team to comply  with  applicable  requirements,
 including  the provisions of articles 145, 147, and 148 of the education
 law, past record of compliance with the labor law, and such other quali-
 fications the authorized entity deems appropriate, which may include but
 are not limited  to  project  understanding,  financial  capability  and
 record  of  past  performance.  The authorized entity shall evaluate and
 rate all responding entities to the request  for  qualifications.  Based
 upon such ratings, the authorized entity shall list the responding enti-
 ties that shall receive a request for proposals in accordance with para-
 graph two of this subdivision.  To the extent consistent with applicable
 federal  law,  the  authorized  entity shall consider, when awarding any
 contract pursuant to this section, the participation of: (i)  responding

 S. 7509--C                         168                        A. 9509--C
 
 entities  that are certified as minority- or women-owned business enter-
 prises pursuant to article 15-A  of  the  executive  law,  or  certified
 pursuant  to local law as minority- or women-owned business enterprises;
 and  (ii) small business concerns identified pursuant to subdivision (b)
 of section 139-g of the state finance law.
   (2) Step two. Selection of the proposal which is the best value to the
 authorized entity. The authorized  entity  shall  issue  a  request  for
 proposals to the responding entities listed pursuant to paragraph one of
 this  subdivision.  If  such  a  responding entity consists of a team of
 separate entities, the entities that comprise such a  team  must  remain
 unchanged from the responding entity as listed pursuant to paragraph one
 of  this subdivision unless otherwise approved by the authorized entity.
 The request for proposals shall set forth the  public  work's  scope  of
 work,  and  other  requirements, as determined by the authorized entity,
 which may include separate goals for  work  under  the  contract  to  be
 performed  by  businesses certified as minority- or women-owned business
 enterprises pursuant to article 15-A of the executive law, or  certified
 pursuant  to local law as minority- or women-owned business enterprises.
 The request for proposals shall also specify the criteria to be used  to
 evaluate the responses and the relative weight of each of such criteria.
 Such  criteria  shall  include  the  proposal's cost, the quality of the
 proposal's solution, the qualifications and experience of the  proposer,
 and  other  factors deemed pertinent by the authorized entity, which may
 include, but shall not be limited to, the proposal's manner and schedule
 of project implementation, the proposer's ability to complete  the  work
 in  a timely and satisfactory manner, maintenance costs of the completed
 public work, maintenance of traffic approach, and community impact.  Any
 contract  awarded  pursuant to this act shall be awarded to a responsive
 and responsible proposer, which, in consideration  of  these  and  other
 specified  criteria  deemed  pertinent, offers the best value, as deter-
 mined by the authorized entity. The request for proposals shall  include
 a  statement that proposers shall designate in writing those portions of
 the proposal that contain trade secrets or other proprietary information
 that are to remain confidential; that the material designated as  confi-
 dential  shall  be  readily separable from the proposal. Nothing in this
 subdivision shall be construed to prohibit the  authorized  entity  from
 negotiating  final  contract  terms  and  conditions including cost. All
 proposals submitted shall be scored according to the criteria listed  in
 the  request  for  proposals and such final scores shall be published on
 the authorized entity's website.
   (b) An  authorized  entity  awarding  a  design-build  contract  to  a
 contractor  offering the best value may but shall not be required to use
 the following types of contracts:
   (1) A cost-plus  not  to  exceed  guaranteed  maximum  price  form  of
 contract in which the authorized entity shall be entitled to monitor and
 audit  all costs. In establishing the schedule and process for determin-
 ing a guaranteed maximum price,  the  contract  between  the  authorized
 entity and the contractor shall:
   (i)  Describe  the  scope  of the work and the cost of performing such
 work,
   (ii) Include a detailed line item cost breakdown,
   (iii) Include a list of all drawings, specifications and other  infor-
 mation on which the guaranteed maximum price is based,
   (iv)  Include  the  dates of substantial and final completion on which
 the guaranteed maximum price is based, and
   (v) Include a schedule of unit prices; or

   (2) A lump sum contract in which the contractor agrees to accept a set
 dollar amount for a  contract  which  comprises  a  single  bid  without
 providing  a  cost breakdown for all costs such as for equipment, labor,
 materials, as well as such contractor's profit for completing all  items
 of work comprising the public work.
   §  5.  Any  contract entered into pursuant to this act shall include a
 clause requiring that any professional services  regulated  by  articles
 145, 147 and 148 of the education law shall be performed and stamped and
 sealed, where appropriate, by a professional licensed in accordance with
 the appropriate articles.
   §  6.  Construction  with  respect to each contract entered into by an
 authorized entity pursuant to this act shall be deemed a  "public  work"
 to  be  performed  in accordance with the provisions of article 8 of the
 labor law, as well as subject to sections 200, 240, 241 and 242 of  such
 law and enforcement of prevailing wage requirements pursuant to applica-
 ble law or, for projects or public works receiving federal aid, applica-
 ble  federal requirements for prevailing wage. Any contract entered into
 pursuant to this act shall  include  a  clause  requiring  the  selected
 design  builder  to  obligate  every  tier  of contractor working on the
 public work to comply with the project  labor  agreement  referenced  in
 section  three  of  this  act, and shall include project labor agreement
 compliance monitoring and enforcement  provisions  consistent  with  the
 applicable project labor agreement.
   §  7.  Each  contract entered into by an authorized entity pursuant to
 this act shall comply with the  objectives  and  goals  with  regard  to
 minority-  and women-owned business enterprises pursuant to, as applica-
 ble, section 6-129 of the administrative code of the city of  New  York,
 or,  for  projects  or  public  works  receiving federal aid, applicable
 federal requirements for disadvantaged business enterprises or minority-
 and women-owned business enterprises.
   § 8. Public works undertaken by an authorized entity pursuant to  this
 act  shall  be  subject to the requirements of article 8 of the environ-
 mental conservation law, and, where applicable, the requirements of  the
 national environmental policy act.
   §  9.  (a)  Notwithstanding  any provision of law to the contrary, all
 rights or benefits, including terms and conditions  of  employment,  and
 protection  of  civil  service  and  collective bargaining status of all
 employees of authorized entities solely in connection  with  the  public
 works identified in subdivision (f) of section two of this act, shall be
 preserved and protected.
   (b)  Nothing  in this act shall result in the: (1) displacement of any
 currently  employed  worker  or  loss  of  position  (including  partial
 displacement  such  as  a  reduction  in the hours of non-overtime work,
 wages or employment benefits), or result in the impairment  of  existing
 collective  bargaining  agreements;  and (2) transfer of existing duties
 and functions related to maintenance and operations currently  performed
 by existing employees of authorized entities to a contractor.
   (c)  Employees  of  authorized  entities  using design-build contracts
 serving in positions in newly created titles shall be  assigned  to  the
 appropriate  bargaining  unit.  Nothing  contained  in this act shall be
 construed to affect: (1) the existing rights of employees of such  enti-
 ties  pursuant  to  an existing collective bargaining agreement, (2) the
 existing representational  relationships  among  employee  organizations
 representing employees of such entities, or (3) the bargaining relation-
 ships between such entities and such employee organizations.

   §  10. The submission of a proposal or responses or the execution of a
 design-build contract pursuant to this act shall not be construed to  be

   §  11.  Nothing  contained  in this act shall limit the right or obli-
 gation of any authorized entity to comply with  the  provisions  of  any
 existing contract or to award contracts as otherwise provided by law.
   §  12.  This act shall take effect immediately and shall expire and be
 deemed repealed 2 years after such date,  provided  that,  public  works

                                 PART MMM

   Section 1. This act shall be known and may be cited as the  "New  York
 Pennsylvania Station Public Safety Improvements Act".
   § 2. It is hereby found and declared, that the rail and transportation
 facility  known  as  New  York  Pennsylvania Station ("Penn Station") is
 antiquated, substandard, and inadequate to meet  current  transportation
 and  public safety needs and presents an unreasonable safety risk to the
 public; Penn Station serves as a major transportation hub for the Metro-
 politan Transportation Authority ("MTA"), New York City Transit, Amtrak,
 the Long Island Railroad, and the New Jersey Transit. It serves hundreds
 of millions of passengers on an annual basis. Well over 600,000  passen-
 gers  travel  through Penn Station on a daily basis. This is more people
 than travel through LaGuardia, John F. Kennedy International, and Newark
 Liberty International airports combined. Penn  Station  is  in  need  of
 modernization  to  meet  public  safety needs. Penn Station is currently
 overcrowded, hard to navigate, at times often chaotic and has a  limited
 capacity  for security and proper policing. Penn Station is in desperate
 need of more access and egress to allow better entrance and exit capaci-
 ty and expedited evacuation  procedures.  In  this  time  of  heightened
 terrorist threats Penn Station needs more controlled points for security
 monitoring  and equipment. Passenger flow and security access must allow
 manageability in emergency situations. The  current  situation  poses  a
 clear  public  safety  hazard.  With  the  new adjoining Farley Building
 Moynihan Train Hall soon to be completed, the proposed  Gateway  Tunnel,
 and  improved Long Island Railroad access the number of commuters enter-
 ing Penn Station is expected to increase dramatically.
   § 3. It is further found and declared that such conditions and circum-
 stances require action to repair or redevelop such facilities into safe,
 modern, efficient facilities to assure the safety and comfort of travel-
 ers. Work is currently underway within Penn Station to improve  passage-
 ways,  concourses,  lighting  and  amenities.  Connections  with the new
 Moynihan Train Hall at Farley are also underway, as well as planning for
 remaining necessary  improvements  to  access  and  egress  and  to  the
 surrounding  areas  to  position  such  areas to accommodate and attract
 passengers and evolving technological and business and commercial  needs
 and practices.
   §  4. This is a pressing public safety and transportation issue and is
 a major objective for the State to resolve and  should  be  made  a  top
 priority.  MTA  and  the  New  York  state urban development corporation
 ("UDC") should coordinate and consult with community  leaders,  business
 groups and federal and city government to design a solution.
   § 5. The State will provide funds to UDC to begin with the planning of
 any such redevelopment.
   § 6. This act shall take effect immediately.

   (34)  Transportation service. The service of transporting, carrying or
 conveying a person or persons by livery service;  whether  to  a  single
 destination  or  to  multiple destinations; and whether the compensation
 paid by or on behalf of the passenger is based on  mileage,  trip,  time
 consumed  or  any  other  basis.  A service that begins and ends in this
 state is deemed intra-state even if it passes outside this state  during
 a  portion of the trip. However, transportation service does not include
 transportation of persons in connection  with  funerals.  Transportation
 service  includes  transporting,  carrying, or conveying property of the
 person being transported, whether owned  by  or  in  the  care  of  such
 person.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, transportation service shall not
 include a TNC prearranged trip, as  that  term  is  defined  in  article
 forty-four-B  of  the  vehicle  and  traffic law, that is subject to tax
 under article twenty-nine-B of this chapter.  In  addition  to  what  is
 included  in  the  definition  of  "receipt"  in paragraph three of this
 subdivision, receipts from the sale of transportation service subject to
 tax include any handling, carrying, baggage, booking  service,  adminis-
 trative,  mark-up,  additional,  or other charge, of any nature, made in
 conjunction  with  the  transportation  service.  Livery  service  means
 service  provided by limousine, black car or other motor vehicle, with a
 driver, but excluding (i) a taxicab, (ii) a bus, and (iii), in a city of
 one million or more in this state, an  affiliated  livery  vehicle,  and
 excluding  any scheduled public service. Limousine means [a] ANY vehicle

 "BUS" MEANS ANY MOTOR VEHICLE  WITH  A  SEATING  CAPACITY  OF  AT  LEAST
 FIFTEEN  PERSONS,  EXCLUDING THE DRIVER, THAT DOES NOT OTHERWISE QUALIFY

 vehicle with a seating capacity of up  to  six  persons,  including  the
 driver,  other  than a black car or luxury limousine, that is authorized
 and licensed by the taxi and limousine  commission  of  a  city  of  one
 million  or  more  to  be dispatched by a base station located in such a
 city and regulated by such taxi and limousine commission; and the charg-
 es for service provided by an affiliated livery vehicle are on the basis
 of flat rate, time, mileage, or zones and not  on  a  garage  to  garage
 basis.

 vehicle  for  failure  of  an  operator  thereof to comply with bus lane
 restrictions in such city in accordance  with  the  provisions  of  this
 section.  The  New  York city department of transportation or applicable
 mass transit agency, for purposes of the implementation of such program,
 shall operate bus lane photo devices only within designated bus lanes in

 department  of  transportation  in consultation with the applicable mass
 transit agency, HOWEVER, THE APPLICABLE MASS  TRANSIT  AGENCY  MAY  ALSO

 device.  Such measures shall include:
   (i)  utilization  of  necessary  technologies to ensure, to the extent
 practicable, that images produced by such bus lane photo  devices  shall
 not  include  images  that  identify  the driver, the passengers, or the
 contents of the vehicle, provided, however, that no notice of  liability
 issued  pursuant  to  this  section shall be dismissed solely because an
 image allows for the identification of the  driver,  the  passengers  or
 other contents of a vehicle;

 plate information and other information and images captured by bus  lane
 photo  devices except: (A) as required to establish liability under this

 violation will be issued during the first sixty days that bus lane photo
 devices are operated on each route in the bus rapid transit program that
 is established after June fifteenth, two thousand fifteen.
   (b)  If  the  city  of  New  York  has established a bus rapid transit
 program pursuant to subdivision (a) of this  section,  the  owner  of  a
 vehicle  shall  be liable for a penalty imposed pursuant to this section
 if such vehicle was used or operated with the permission of  the  owner,
 express or implied, in violation of any bus lane restrictions that apply
 to routes within such program, and such violation is evidenced by infor-
 mation  obtained  from a bus lane photo device; provided however that no

 cle insurance coverage.

 or agencies designated by the city of New  York,  or  any  other  entity
 authorized  by  such  city  to  prepare  and  mail  such notification of

 reported  to  the police department as having been stolen, it shall be a
 valid defense to an allegation of liability for a  violation  of  a  bus
 lane  restriction  that  the  vehicle had been reported to the police as
 stolen  prior to the time the violation occurred and had not been recov-
 ered by such time. For purposes of asserting  the  defense  provided  by

 identified  in  the  notice  of liability at the time of such violation,
 together with such other additional information contained in the rental,
 lease or other contract document, as may be reasonably required by  such
 bureau pursuant to regulations that may be promulgated for such purpose.

 subdivision shall render the lessor liable for the penalty prescribed in
 this section.

 this  subdivision,  the  lessee  of  such  vehicle  on  the date of such
 violation shall be deemed to be the owner of such vehicle  for  purposes
 of this section, shall be subject to liability for such violation pursu-
 ant  to this section and shall be sent a notice of liability pursuant to
 subdivision (g) of this section.
   (j) If the owner liable for a violation of a bus lane restriction  was
 not  the operator of the vehicle at the time of the violation, the owner
 may maintain an action for indemnification against the operator.

 of an operator of a vehicle for any violation of bus lane restrictions.
   (l)  If  the city of New York adopts a bus rapid transit demonstration
 program pursuant to subdivision (a) of this section it  shall  submit  a
 report on the results of the use of bus lane photo devices to the gover-

 upon such ratings, the authorized entity shall list the responding enti-
 ties that shall receive a request for proposals in accordance with para-
 graph two of this subdivision.  To the extent consistent with applicable
 federal  law,  the  authorized  entity shall consider, when awarding any
 contract pursuant to this section, the participation of: (i)  responding
 entities  that are certified as minority- or women-owned business enter-
 prises pursuant to article 15-A  of  the  executive  law,  or  certified
 pursuant  to local law as minority- or women-owned business enterprises;
 and (ii) small business concerns identified pursuant to subdivision  (b)
 of section 139-g of the state finance law.
   (2) Step two. Selection of the proposal which is the best value to the
 authorized  entity.  The  authorized  entity  shall  issue a request for
 proposals to the responding entities listed pursuant to paragraph one of
 this subdivision. If such a responding entity  consists  of  a  team  of
 separate  entities,  the  entities that comprise such a team must remain

 S. 7509--C                         189                        A. 9509--C
 
 unchanged from the responding entity as listed pursuant to paragraph one
 of this subdivision unless otherwise approved by the authorized  entity.
 The  request  for  proposals  shall set forth the public work's scope of
 work,  and  other  requirements, as determined by the authorized entity,
 which may include separate goals for  work  under  the  contract  to  be
 performed  by  businesses certified as minority- or women-owned business
 enterprises pursuant to article 15-A of the executive law, or  certified
 pursuant  to local law as minority- or women-owned business enterprises.
 The request for proposals shall also specify the criteria to be used  to
 evaluate the responses and the relative weight of each of such criteria.
 Such  criteria  shall  include  the  proposal's cost, the quality of the
 proposal's solution, the qualifications and experience of the  proposer,
 and  other  factors deemed pertinent by the authorized entity, which may
 include, but shall not be limited to, the proposal's manner and schedule
 of project implementation, the proposer's ability to complete  the  work
 in  a timely and satisfactory manner, maintenance costs of the completed
 public work, maintenance of traffic approach, and community impact.  Any
 contract  awarded  pursuant to this act shall be awarded to a responsive
 and responsible proposer, which, in consideration  of  these  and  other
 specified  criteria  deemed  pertinent, offers the best value, as deter-
 mined by the authorized entity. The request for proposals shall  include
 a  statement that proposers shall designate in writing those portions of
 the proposal that contain trade secrets or other proprietary information
 that are to remain confidential; that the material designated as  confi-
 dential  shall  be  readily separable from the proposal. Nothing in this
 subdivision shall be construed to prohibit the  authorized  entity  from
 negotiating  final  contract  terms  and  conditions including cost. All
 proposals submitted shall be scored according to the criteria listed  in
 the  request  for  proposals and such final scores shall be published on
 the authorized entity's website.
   (b) An  authorized  entity  awarding  a  design-build  contract  to  a
 contractor  offering the best value may but shall not be required to use
 the following types of contracts:
   (1) A cost-plus  not  to  exceed  guaranteed  maximum  price  form  of
 contract in which the authorized entity shall be entitled to monitor and
 audit  all costs. In establishing the schedule and process for determin-
 ing a guaranteed maximum price,  the  contract  between  the  authorized
 entity and the contractor shall:
   (i)  Describe  the  scope  of the work and the cost of performing such
 work,
   (ii) Include a detailed line item cost breakdown,
   (iii) Include a list of all drawings, specifications and other  infor-
 mation on which the guaranteed maximum price is based,
   (iv)  Include  the  dates of substantial and final completion on which
 the guaranteed maximum price is based, and
   (v) Include a schedule of unit prices; or
   (2) A lump sum contract in which the contractor agrees to accept a set
 dollar amount for a  contract  which  comprises  a  single  bid  without
 providing  a  cost breakdown for all costs such as for equipment, labor,
 materials, as well as such contractor's profit for completing all  items
 of work comprising the public work.
   §  5.  Any  contract entered into pursuant to this act shall include a
 clause requiring that any professional services  regulated  by  articles
 145, 147 and 148 of the education law shall be performed and stamped and
 sealed, where appropriate, by a professional licensed in accordance with
 the appropriate articles.

   §  6.  Construction  with  respect to each contract entered into by an
 authorized entity pursuant to this act shall be deemed a  "public  work"
 to  be  performed  in accordance with the provisions of article 8 of the
 labor law, as well as subject to sections 200, 240, 241 and 242 of  such
 law and enforcement of prevailing wage requirements pursuant to applica-
 ble law or, for projects or public works receiving federal aid, applica-
 ble  federal requirements for prevailing wage. Any contract entered into
 pursuant to this act shall  include  a  clause  requiring  the  selected
 design  builder  to  obligate  every  tier  of contractor working on the
 public work to comply with the project  labor  agreement  referenced  in
 section  three  of  this  act, and shall include project labor agreement
 compliance monitoring and enforcement  provisions  consistent  with  the
 applicable project labor agreement.
   §  7.  Each  contract entered into by an authorized entity pursuant to
 this act shall comply with the  objectives  and  goals  with  regard  to

 ble, section 6-129 of the administrative code of the city of  New  York,
 or,  for  projects  or  public  works  receiving federal aid, applicable
 federal requirements for disadvantaged business enterprises or minority-
 and women-owned business enterprises.
   § 8. Public works undertaken by an authorized entity pursuant to  this
 act  shall  be  subject to the requirements of article 8 of the environ-
 mental conservation law, and, where applicable, the requirements of  the
 national environmental policy act.
   §  9.  (a)  Notwithstanding  any provision of law to the contrary, all
 rights or benefits, including terms and conditions  of  employment,  and
 protection  of  civil  service  and  collective bargaining status of all
 employees of authorized entities solely in connection  with  the  public
 works identified in subdivision (f) of section two of this act, shall be
 preserved and protected.
   (b)  Nothing  in this act shall result in the: (1) displacement of any
 currently  employed  worker  or  loss  of  position  (including  partial
 displacement  such  as  a  reduction  in the hours of non-overtime work,
 wages or employment benefits), or result in the impairment  of  existing
 collective  bargaining  agreements;  and (2) transfer of existing duties
 and functions related to maintenance and operations currently  performed
 by existing employees of authorized entities to a contractor.
   (c)  Employees  of  authorized  entities  using design-build contracts
 serving in positions in newly created titles shall be  assigned  to  the
 appropriate  bargaining  unit.  Nothing  contained  in this act shall be
 construed to affect: (1) the existing rights of employees of such  enti-
 ties  pursuant  to  an existing collective bargaining agreement, (2) the
 existing representational  relationships  among  employee  organizations
 representing employees of such entities, or (3) the bargaining relation-
 ships between such entities and such employee organizations.

 design-build contract pursuant to this act shall not be construed to  be
 a violation of section 6512 of the education law.
   §  11.  Nothing  contained  in this act shall limit the right or obli-
 gation of any authorized entity to comply with  the  provisions  of  any
 existing contract or to award contracts as otherwise provided by law.

 BE AUTOMATICALLY REINSTATED.
   (C) SHOULD THE INDIVIDUAL EMPLOYEE WHO HAS  SIGNED  A  DUES  DEDUCTION
 AUTHORIZATION CARD EITHER BE REMOVED FROM A PUBLIC EMPLOYER'S PAYROLL OR
 OTHERWISE  PLACED  ON  ANY  TYPE  OF  INVOLUNTARY  OR VOLUNTARY LEAVE OF

 SECTION SHALL BE ADJUDGED BY A COURT OF  COMPETENT  JURISDICTION  TO  BE
 UNCONSTITUTIONAL  OR  OTHERWISE INVALID, SUCH JUDGMENT SHALL NOT AFFECT,
 IMPAIR OR INVALIDATE THE REMAINDER THEREOF, BUT SHALL BE CONFINED IN ITS
 OPERATION TO THE CLAUSE, SENTENCE, PARAGRAPH,  OR  SUBDIVISION  OF  THIS
 SECTION  DIRECTLY  INVOLVED  IN  THE  CONTROVERSY IN WHICH SUCH JUDGMENT
 SHALL HAVE BEEN RENDERED.
   (B) IF ANY CLAUSE, SENTENCE, PARAGRAPH, OR PART OF A  SIGNED  AUTHORI-
 ZATION  SHALL  BE  ADJUDGED  BY  A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION TO BE

 BUT SHALL BE CONFINED IN ITS OPERATION TO THE  CLAUSE,  SENTENCE,  PARA-
 GRAPH,  OR  PART  OF  THE  SIGNED AUTHORIZATION DIRECTLY INVOLVED IN THE

 municipal corporation or civil division or political subdivision of  the
 state  such  amount that such employee may specify in writing filed with
 such fiscal or disbursing officer for the payment  of  dues  in  a  duly
 organized  association or organization of civil service employees and to
 transmit the sum so deducted to the said  association  or  organization.
 Any  such  written  authorization  [may be withdrawn by such employee or
 member at any time by filing written notice of such withdrawal with  the
 fiscal  or disbursing officer] SHALL REMAIN IN EFFECT IN ACCORDANCE WITH
 SUBDIVISION ONE OF SECTION TWO HUNDRED EIGHT OF THE CIVIL SERVICE LAW.
   § 3. Subdivision 2 of section 201 of the state finance law, as amended
 by chapter 233 of the laws of 1992, is amended to read as follows:
   2. The comptroller is hereby authorized to deduct from the  salary  of
 any  employee  of  the state such amount as such employee may specify in
 writing filed in a manner determined by the comptroller for the  payment
 of  membership  dues  in a duly organized association or organization of
 civil service employees or faculty members of the state  university  and
 to  transmit  the  sums so deducted to the said association or organiza-
 tion. Any such written authorization [may be withdrawn by such  employee
 at  any  time  upon filing written notice of such withdrawal in a manner
 determined by the comptroller] SHALL REMAIN IN EFFECT IN ACCORDANCE WITH
 SUBDIVISION ONE OF SECTION TWO HUNDRED EIGHT OF THE CIVIL  SERVICE  LAW.
 The  foregoing notwithstanding, and subject to the provisions of article
 fourteen of the civil service  law,  such  deductions  and  transmittals
 shall be terminated as to one or more such associations or organizations
 in  accordance  with  the written directions of the director of employee
 relations, not more than thirty days after receipt by the comptroller of
 such directions. The deductions and transmittals which were the  subject
 of  such  directions shall not thereafter be resumed without the written
 approval of such director.
   § 4. Subdivision 2 of section 209-a  of  the  civil  service  law,  as
 amended  by  chapter  467  of  the  laws  of 1990, is amended to read as

 interfere with, restrain or coerce public employees in the  exercise  of
 the  rights  granted in section two hundred two, or to cause, or attempt
 to cause, a public employer to do so PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT AN EMPLOYEE
 ORGANIZATION  DOES NOT INTERFERE WITH, RESTRAIN OR COERCE PUBLIC EMPLOY-
 EES WHEN IT LIMITS ITS SERVICES TO AND REPRESENTATION OF NON-MEMBERS  IN
 ACCORDANCE WITH THIS SUBDIVISION; (b) to refuse to negotiate collective-
 ly  in good faith with a public employer, provided it is the duly recog-
 nized or certified representative of the employees of such employer;  or
 (c)  to breach its duty of fair representation to public employees under
 this article. NOTWITHSTANDING ANY LAW, RULE OR REGULATION TO THE CONTRA-
 RY, AN EMPLOYEE ORGANIZATION'S DUTY OF FAIR REPRESENTATION TO  A  PUBLIC
 EMPLOYEE IT REPRESENTS BUT WHO IS NOT A MEMBER OF THE EMPLOYEE ORGANIZA-
 TION  SHALL BE LIMITED TO THE NEGOTIATION OR ENFORCEMENT OF THE TERMS OF
 AN AGREEMENT WITH THE PUBLIC EMPLOYER.  NO  PROVISION  OF  THIS  ARTICLE
 SHALL BE CONSTRUED TO REQUIRE AN EMPLOYEE ORGANIZATION TO PROVIDE REPRE-
 SENTATION  TO  A NON-MEMBER (I) DURING QUESTIONING BY THE EMPLOYER, (II)
 IN STATUTORY OR ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEEDINGS OR TO  ENFORCE  STATUTORY  OR
 REGULATORY  RIGHTS, OR (III) IN ANY STAGE OF A GRIEVANCE, ARBITRATION OR
 OTHER CONTRACTUAL PROCESS CONCERNING THE EVALUATION OR DISCIPLINE  OF  A
 PUBLIC EMPLOYEE WHERE THE NON-MEMBER IS PERMITTED TO PROCEED WITHOUT THE
 EMPLOYEE ORGANIZATION AND BE REPRESENTED BY HIS OR HER OWN ADVOCATE. NOR

 diminish  the  rights and benefits which accrue to an employee organiza-
 tion through a bonafide collective bargaining agreement.
   § 6. This act shall take effect immediately.

 pupils  who, by reason of foreign birth or ancestry have limited English
 proficiency, shall be provided with instructional programs as  specified
