Maddy summaryThis bill amends New York State law to clarify the definition of a business "office" for limited liability companies (LLCs) and limited partnerships. It requires that the "street address of the principal business location" (not just a registered agent's address or mailbox) be included in official filings, such as articles of organization or certificates of partnership. The law prohibits using a post office box, private mailbox, or mail logistics center as the sole office address for meeting state filing requirements. This directly affects all LLCs and limited partnerships operating in New York that must submit such documents to the state.

Maddy summaryThis bill requires corporations and limited liability companies (LLCs) already mandated to file EEO-1 reports with the federal Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) to also submit copies of those reports to the New York State Secretary of State. The Secretary of State must then publish the demographic data - covering gender, race, and ethnicity of employees - on their official website within 90 days of receiving the report. It applies to all such businesses required to file EEO-1s under federal law, adding a state-level transparency requirement without creating new reporting obligations. The law takes effect two years after enactment.

Maddy summaryThis bill increases tax credits for developers redeveloping brownfield sites (abandoned industrial properties with potential contamination). It sets tiered credit limits: $35 million for standard sites, $45 million for manufacturing sites, and $70 million for "qualified project sites" meeting specific criteria. To qualify for the highest credit, projects must be in cities under 100,000 population, include affordable housing (25% of units), have transportation access, and exceed $250 million in total project value. These changes directly affect developers of qualifying brownfield sites who meet all criteria for enhanced tax incentives.

Provides access to medical marihuana for an animal when a veterinarian determines such animal has any medical condition that may benefit from treatment with medical marihuana.

Maddy summaryThis bill strengthens New York's Kendra's Law (assisted outpatient treatment program) by making it permanent and adding specific oversight requirements. It requires program coordinators to monitor treatment compliance, ensures timely service delivery, and mandates an educational pamphlet explaining the petition process in plain language. The law directly affects individuals court-ordered into outpatient treatment for serious mental illness, community mental health providers, and court staff handling petitions. Key changes include eliminating the program's automatic expiration and clarifying duties for directors of community services to investigate reports and coordinate care.

Maddy summaryThis bill changes the deadline for partnerships and S corporations to elect annual tax payment schedules, requiring the election to be made by September 15th each year. It affects electing partnerships, S corporations, and city partnerships/resident S corporations by establishing specific payment schedules based on when the election is filed: earlier filings trigger four equal installments, while later filings require larger initial payments (25% to 75%) with fewer subsequent payments. The bill specifies that elections made after March 15th must include a larger initial payment proportional to the timing of the filing, with all payments due by December 15th. The required annual payment amount is based on the lesser of 90% of current-year tax or 100% of prior-year tax.

Maddy summaryThis bill increases tax credits for installing geothermal energy systems. It raises the maximum credit to $10,000 for systems placed in service on or after July 1, 2025 (up from $5,000 before June 2025). It also adds refundability for qualifying low-income taxpayers or those in disadvantaged communities, allowing excess credits to be refunded instead of carried forward starting in 2026. The policy directly affects homeowners and businesses installing geothermal systems, providing greater financial incentives for adoption.
