BILL NUMBER: S3514

SPONSOR: COMRIE
 
TITLE OF BILL:

An act in relation to extending the renewal of certain provisions of the
real property tax law for persons age sixty-five and older or for
certain persons with disabilities and limited income for one year due to
the novel coronavirus, COVID-19 pandemic

 
PURPOSE OR GENERAL IDEA OF BILL:

Extends certain provisions of the real property tax law for persons over
the age sixty-five and older and for certain persons with disabilities
for one year due to the novel coronavirus, COVID-19 pandemic

 
SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS:

Section 1. Every local municipal assessor is authorized to extend for
the period of one year, the renewal of sections 467 and 459-c of the
real property tax law required pursuant to title 2 of article 4 of the

real property tax law, relating to persons age sixty-five and older or
for certain persons with disabilities and limited income. If the eligi-
ble recipient determines his or her income has changed in a matter that
would grant him or her a greater exemption than what was presented on
the previous year's assessment roll, such eligible recipient shall have
the opportunity to reapply. Such exemption shall be no less than what
was granted on the previous year's assessment roll.

Section 2: Effective Date

 
JUSTIFICATION:

Eligible property owners must timely file an annual renewal application
in the assessor's office to continue the exemption. The time to file a
renewal application is now.  It is especially important to protect the
people at increased risk of severe illness from Covid-19. The best way
to protect this population is to limit their interactions with other
people as much as possible.

 
PRIOR LEGISLATIVE HISTORY:

New bill.

 
EFFECTIVE DATE:
This act shall take effect immediately and shall be deemed to have been
in full force and effect on and after March 7, 2020.
