Provides for a partial exemption from taxation of certain residential real property transferred by a governmental entity, nonprofit housing organization, land bank or community land trust to low-income households; sets forth conditions for the discontinuance of such exemption.
This bill expands the residential redevelopment inhibited property exemption to all cities, towns, and villages in the state, removing a current restriction that limited it to one specific city. It allows any municipality to adopt local laws designating properties as "redevelopment inhibited" if they are neglected, abandoned, or have conditions (like long vacancy or zoning violations) preventing private redevelopment. Property owners in designated areas can then receive an exemption from taxes on the increased value of their property after redevelopment, provided they own a one- to four-unit residence, maintain owner-occupancy, and file annual residency affidavits. The exemption covers only the incremental tax increase from redevelopment, not the base property value, and requires compliance with building and zoning codes.
This bill authorizes the town of Patterson, New York, to impose a 5% tax on transient hotel and motel stays (including bed-and-breakfasts and tourist facilities), excluding guests staying 90+ consecutive days or certain exempt entities like government agencies and non-profits. Hotels and motels must collect the tax from guests and remit it to Patterson’s treasury, with revenues funding general town expenses. The tax authority expires after two years unless renewed. It does not apply to permanent residents or specific exempt organizations as defined in the law.
This bill extends tax exemptions for mutual redevelopment companies in cities with over one million residents. It allows local governments to grant an additional 50-year tax exemption period after the initial maximum period ends, provided the company pays at least 5% of annual rent (minus utilities) for residential units or the taxes paid in 2001 - whichever is lower. The exemption applies specifically to residential portions of redevelopment projects. This change directly affects mutual redevelopment companies operating in large cities like New York City, altering their long-term tax obligations.

The bill was passed by both legislative chambers and signed into law on August 7, 2025.

The change modifies existing tax law to maintain the county's current revenue source for public services.

The extension directly affects residents and businesses in Columbia County that pay these taxes. The bill does not alter the tax rate or create new taxes, only prolonging the current authority.
