Sponsor's memo
Title of bill
An act to amend the real property tax law, in relation to designating one person of the state board as a person from New York City
Purpose or general idea of bill
To provide for the appointment of an individual from New York City to the State Board of Real Property Services.
Summary of specific provisions
This bill would amend Section 200 of the Real Property Tax Law to provide that of those five members appointed by the Governor to the State Board of Real Property Services, one would be a representative from New York City who is knowledgeable in real property tax procedures and practices of New York City and who is familiar with the operational procedures of New York City's Department of Finance as related to real property assessments and taxation.
Justification
The State Board of Real Property Services performs such important functions as assessing special franchises, establishing equalization rates for local governments, approving assessment of state lands subject to taxation, and generally supervising the function of assessing in the state.
New York City has the single largest assessing unit in the State and by far the most diverse properties to assess and administer the rules, regulations, and statutes of New York State as well as that of City of New York. Therefore, a representative from the City of New York would provide valuable insight and input in reference to special assessing units, the complexities associated with assessing condominiums/cooperatives, and numerous other aspects that are unique to large taxing jurisdictions.
Fiscal implications
None to the State.
Effective date
Immediately after enactment and shall be deemed to be in full force as of December 31, 2010.
