BILL NUMBER:S5832
Title of bill
An act to amend the real property tax law, in relation to proceedings for challenges to real property assessments
Purpose or general idea of bill
This is a home rule request of the town of Rye to authorize establishment of expedited procedures for tax certiorari claims within the town of Rye.
Summary of specific provisions
The town of Rye requests the ability to establish procedures for a six month timetable for tax certiorari claims. The procedures will require income and expense statements be filed as part of this process and delineates how such claims will be reviewed given the towns recent full value property reassessment.
Justification
The town of Rye recently reassessed properties in the town. The purpose of the reassessment was to provide a fairer and more up-to-date basis for taxing properties and reduce the number of tax certiorari cases. Because the town has taken the step of reassessing properties the town seeks an expedited process to review tax certiorari claims that they do receive in order to lower costs to the taxpayers of processing these claims.
