MURPHY -- read twice and ordered printed, and when printed to be committed to the Committee on Investigations and Govern- ment Operations AN ACT to direct the department of taxation and finance to conduct a study of state-owned lands within the counties of Westchester, Putnam and Dutchess, and the real property tax impact of such lands upon such counties and the localities therein THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND ASSEM- BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS: Section 1. Legislative intent. The legislature hereby finds that on January 9, 2017, the state of New York announced an agreement with Entergy to close the Indian Point nuclear plant. The planned closure of this facility is set for 2020 and 2021. It is estimated that the loss to the tax base of the county of Westchester and surrounding counties in the catchment area of such plant will be severe. The legislature further finds that the state has utilized a piecemeal approach to the taxation of state-owned land. Home owners across the state are burdened with subsidizing, through real property taxes, the revenue lost from the untaxed state-owned land in their communities. The impact of this fiscal burden, coupled with the closure of the Indian Point nuclear plant, creates a unique situation throughout communities in the counties of Westchester, Putnam and Dutchess. Therefore, it is in the best interest of the taxpayers of these counties to study this disparate treatment of taxation on state-owned land in light of the closure of the Indian Point nuclear plant, which will have a substantial impact on local taxpayers. This study seeks to determine the fiscal impact of expanding state law that currently requires the state to pay real property taxes to certain local governments in order to pay taxes on state lands located through- out the Indian Point catchment region. § 2. The department of taxation and finance shall, in consultation with any other department, division, board, bureau, commission, agency EXPLANATION--Matter in ITALICS (underscored) is new; matter in brackets [ ] is old law to be omitted.
