S T A T E O F N E W Y O R K ________________________________________________________________________ 1700 2015-2016 Regular Sessions I N S E N A T E January 14, 2015 ___________ Introduced by Sen. GALLIVAN -- read twice and ordered printed, and when printed to be committed to the Committee on Local Government AN ACT in relation to the town of Eagle, county of Wyoming wind project THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND ASSEM- BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS: Section 1. Legislative findings and intent. The legislature hereby finds that when the town of Eagle wind project PILOT ends, it will create a sudden gap in the town's tax revenues. As the current revenues from this project completely cover all of the town's taxes, the end of this project will create a serious financial burden on the town's prop- erty taxpayers. To ameliorate this burden, the legislature finds it necessary to exempt the town of Eagle from certain provisions of section 6-e of the general municipal law for a limited period of time to allow the town to phase in the new property tax burden. S 2. 1. It is hereby found and determined that the town of Eagle, county of Wyoming, exceeded its maximum appropriation for payment into the contingency and tax stabilization reserve fund pursuant to subdivi- sion 3 of section 6-e of the general municipal law where the balance of the fund exceeded ten percent of the eligible portion of the annual budget for fiscal year 2014-2015. 2. Notwithstanding the defects described in subdivision one of section two of this act, to the extent that the town of Eagle exceeded their maximum appropriation, such amounts are hereby legalized, validated, and ratified. S 3. Notwithstanding subdivision 3 and paragraph e of subdivision 4 of section 6-e of the general municipal law, the town of Eagle is hereby authorized to appropriate an amount up to fifteen percent of the eligi- ble portion of the annual budget for the fiscal year for which the appropriation would be made into the contingency and tax stabilization reserve fund. EXPLANATION--Matter in ITALICS (underscored) is new; matter in brackets [ ] is old law to be omitted. LBD04623-01-5
