AN ACT to amend the real property tax law, in relation to adjusted  base
  proportions in the city of Long Beach for the 2009 assessment roll

  THE  PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND ASSEM-
BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:

  Section 1. Subparagraph (xi) of paragraph  (a)  of  subdivision  3  of
section  1903  of  the real property tax law, as added by chapter 382 of
the laws of 2009, is amended to read as follows:
  (xi) (A) Notwithstanding any other provision  of  law  AND  EXCEPT  AS
OTHERWISE  PROVIDED  IN  CLAUSE (B) OF THIS SUBPARAGRAPH, in an approved
assessing unit in the county of Nassau and for current base  proportions
to  be  determined  by taxes based on such approved assessing unit's two
thousand nine assessment roll, the current base proportion of any  class
shall  not  exceed  the adjusted base proportion or adjusted proportion,
whichever is appropriate, of the immediately  preceding  year,  by  more
than  one  percent.  Where  the  computation of current base proportions
would otherwise produce such result, the current base proportion of such
class or classes shall be limited to such one percent increase  and  the
legislative body of such approved assessing unit shall alter the current
base  proportion  of  either  class  so that the sum of the current base
proportions equals one.
  (B) NOTWITHSTANDING ANY OTHER PROVISION OF LAW, IN THE  CITY  OF  LONG
BEACH  AND  FOR CURRENT BASE PROPORTIONS TO BE DETERMINED BY TAXES BASED
ON SUCH CITY'S TWO THOUSAND  NINE  ASSESSMENT  ROLL,  THE  CURRENT  BASE
PROPORTION OF ANY CLASS SHALL NOT EXCEED THE ADJUSTED BASE PROPORTION OR
ADJUSTED  PROPORTION,  WHICHEVER  IS  APPROPRIATE,  OF  THE  IMMEDIATELY
PRECEDING YEAR. WHERE THE COMPUTATION OF CURRENT BASE PROPORTIONS  WOULD
OTHERWISE PRODUCE SUCH RESULT, THE CURRENT BASE PROPORTION OF SUCH CLASS
OR  CLASSES  SHALL  NOT  INCREASE  AND THE LEGISLATIVE BODY OF SUCH CITY
SHALL ALTER THE CURRENT BASE PROPORTION OF EITHER CLASS SO THAT THE  SUM
OF THE CURRENT BASE PROPORTIONS EQUALS ONE.
  S  2.  This  act  shall take effect immediately and shall be deemed to
have been in full force and effect on and after  August  26,  2009,  and
shall  apply  to  the levy of taxes based on the 2009 assessment roll in
the city of Long Beach.
