BILL NUMBER:S6605A
Title of bill
An act to authorize the START Children's Center, Inc. to retroactively apply for a real property tax exemption for certain property in the city of Troy, county of Rensselaer
Purpose or general idea of bill
Retroactive application of real property tax exemption for the START Children's Center, Inc.
Summary of specific provisions
Section 1. Notwithstanding any other provision of any law to the contrary, the assessor of the city of Troy is hereby authorized to accept from START Children's Center, Inc. for the period of time from May 1, 2012 through June 30, 2012, an application for exemption from real property taxes pursuant to section 420-a of the real property tax law for a portion of the 2012 assessment roll for the parcel owned by such not-for-profit entity which is located at 131 Sixth Avenue, Troy, New York, 12180, also known as Lot 90.39 of Block 5 of Section 19.
Justification
In May 2012 START Children's Center, Inc. purchased the parcel located at 131 Sixth Avenue, Troy, New York, 12180, also known as Lot 90.39 of Block 5 of Section 19 from ARC. Both organizations are tax exempt, 501c(3) organizations. When ARC moved out of the premises, the City of Troy placed the property back on the tax roll, pursuant to New York State law. START Children's Center, Inc. filed a tax exemption form with the City of Troy on November 8, 2012. If not allowed this real property tax exemption, START Children's Center, Inc. would be severely impacted fiscally and critical services provided to children in Rensselaer County would be endangered.
