Maddy summaryThis bill amends New York's property tax law to include specific cooperative and condominium properties in the "class one" tax category, which typically has lower tax rates than other property classes. It adds two new categories: condominiums that are owner-occupied (with no prior non-condominium classification) and cooperative properties that were part of pre-1940 bungalow colonies maintained solely for owner-occupant use. These properties will now qualify for class one assessment instead of being excluded, potentially reducing their tax burden. The change directly affects residential property owners in qualifying cooperative buildings and condominiums meeting the specified conditions. It does not alter tax rates but adjusts eligibility for the lower-rate classification.
