What's happening

This bill extends certain provisions of Nassau County’s real property tax assessment and review laws from 2018 to 2020.

Why it matters

  1. Delays the expiration of specific assessment and tax review rules in Nassau County. , which can affect how property taxes are calculated, challenged, and potentially reduced for homeowners and businesses until 2020 rather than ending in 2018.

  2. Provides more time for continuity and stability in local tax processes. , so property owners, assessors, and local governments can plan and operate under familiar rules rather than adjusting to new or reverted procedures on short notice.

  3. May impact property tax bills and appeals for two additional years. , possibly influencing financial planning for residents, real estate investors, and municipal budgets, since the rules in question often relate to assessment fairness and review mechanisms.

Sponsor's memo

Title of bill

An act to amend chapter 401 of the laws of 2002, amending the real property tax law and the Nassau county administrative code relating to assessment and review of assessments in the county of Nassau, in relation to extending certain provisions thereof

Summary of provisions

Section one extends sections 2, 4, and 7 of chapter 401 of 2002 until June 30, 2020.

Section two provides that the act shall take effect immediately.

Existing law

Chapter 401 of 2002 reshaped the assessment review procedure in Nassau County. This chapter strengthened the Assessment Review Commission's (ARC) ability to review and resolve assessment challenges before the assessment roll becomes final. More specifically, section two of the Chapter retains the existing law's valuation date, but makes it applica- ble to the following year's final roll. This section also codified ARC's authority to accept and consider evidence of value as of the statutory valuation date based on conditions in existence at the time of the hear- ing.

Section four of Chapter 401 of 2002 provided that the tentative assess- ment roll shall be completed and verified as the final assessment roll on or before the first business day of April in the year following its initial publication.

Section seven of the Chapter provides that if there is a change in the exempt status, construction of new improvements or destruction of exist- ing improvements between publication of the tentative assessment roll and the taxable status date for the following year, the Board of Asses- sors shall determine a new assessment or correct the exempt status of the property. The aforementioned provisions are due to expire and be deemed repealed on June 30, 2016 and this bill would extend said provisions until June 30, 2020.

Justification

This bill extends until June 30, 2020 provisions in Chapter 401 of 2002 that are due to expire on June 30, 2018. This extension will provide the County with the necessary time to review the assessment procedure in Nassau County and to make necessary changes.
