BILL NUMBER: S7283 TITLE OF BILL : An act to amend the real property tax law, in relation to providing an optional prepayment of property taxes in monthly payments PURPOSE OR GENERAL IDEA OF BILL : To provide local municipalities the option to collect property taxes on a ten-month schedule in addition to the current semi-annual schedule. SUMMARY OF SPECIFIC PROVISIONS : Section 1 adds new section 510-b to the real property tax law.

The schedule is as follows: for each month of the nine-month period beginning in June of the year the property tax bill is prepared, the property taxpayer will pay ten percent of their previous year's property tax bill to the appropriate municipality. In March, the tenth month of the ten-month schedule, the property taxpayer will pay the balance of the tax bill resulting from the current year's tax bill minus the nine payments of ten percent of the previous year's tax bill. Section 2 contains the legislation's effective date.
