BILL NUMBER:S5529A
Title of bill
An act to authorize an extension of time to file a tentative assessment roll in certain towns
Purpose
This legislation provides the Town of Hamilton in Madison County with the authority to enact a local law or resolution to extend their current tentative assessment roll and to establish a new date, no later than July 31, 2011, for filing the tentative roll.
Summary of provisions
This legislation allows a town in a county with a population between 73,000 and 75,000 inhabitants to adopt a local law or resolution to extend the time for filing the tentative roll and to establish a new grievance process.
Justification
The Town of Hamilton in Madison County, in their efforts to comply with State law and keep assessed property values up-to-date and at a uniform percentage of value, have experienced problems in the preparation of the 2011 assessment rolls.
A review of the 2011 preliminary assessment roll by the Town Board and counsel have indicated potential inequities and irregularities arising from the Town's participation in the annual reassessment program.
In its effort to promote fairness, the Town has determined that it has no other option than to request special legislation allowing for an extension of time for the filing of the tentative roll for 2011.
Similar legislation was passed and signed into law for the City of Cohoes Chapters 128 & 129 of 2002; and for certain towns in Fulton County in 2005 Chapter 177 of 2005
