  Section 1. Paragraph (a) of subdivision 3 of section 467 of  the  real
property  tax  law,  as  amended  by chapter 186 of the laws of 2006, is
amended to read as follows:
  (a) if the income of the owner or the combined income of the owners of
the property for EITHER OF the TWO income tax [year]  YEARS  immediately
preceding  the  date of making application for exemption exceeds the sum
of three thousand dollars, or such other sum not less than  three  thou-
sand  dollars  nor  more than twenty-six thousand dollars beginning July
first, two thousand six, twenty-seven thousand  dollars  beginning  July
first,  two thousand seven, twenty-eight thousand dollars beginning July
first, two thousand eight, and twenty-nine  thousand  dollars  beginning
July  first,  two  thousand  nine,  as may be provided by the local law,
ordinance or resolution adopted pursuant to this section.  [Income]  TWO
INCOME tax [year] YEARS shall mean the [twelve] TWENTY-FOUR month period
for  which  the  owner  or  owners  filed  a federal personal income tax
return, or if no such return is filed, the calendar year.   Where  title
is  vested  in either the husband or the wife, their combined income may
not exceed such sum, except where the husband or wife, or ex-husband  or
ex-wife  is absent from the property as provided in subparagraph (ii) of
paragraph (d) of this subdivision, then only the income of the spouse or
ex-spouse residing on the property  shall  be  considered  and  may  not
exceed  such  sum. Such income shall include social security and retire-
ment benefits, interest, dividends, total gain from the sale or exchange
