Removes the ability of a board of trustees and mayor to act as the board of assessors
This bill prohibits village boards of trustees and mayors from serving as members of the board of assessors. It directly affects New York villages that previously allowed trustees or the mayor to be appointed to the assessors' board under local law. The key change amends village law to explicitly state that "no member of the board of trustees or mayor shall be appointed a member of the board of assessors." This eliminates the ability for village leaders to hold both governance and property tax assessment roles simultaneously. The law applies to all villages operating under the relevant provisions of the village law.
