AN ACT to amend the real property tax  law,  in  relation  to  providing
  mandate relief to local school districts

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

  Section 1.  Paragraph (c) of subdivision 1 of section 726 of the  real
property  tax  law,  as  amended  by chapter 714 of the laws of 1982, is
amended to read as follows:
  (c) Any final order in a proceeding under article seven of this  chap-
ter, which orders or directs the correction or striking of an assessment
appearing  on  that  portion  of  a city, town or county assessment roll
applicable to a  school  district,  shall  be  binding  on  such  school
district.  Any  amount  of  taxes  of  such  school district at any time
collected upon such assessment in excess of the amount which would  have
been  paid  had  such  assessment been made as determined by such order,
shall be refunded by the school authorities  of  such  school  district,
together  with  interest thereon computed as provided in subdivision two
of this section. Such refund shall be made in accordance with the proce-
dure set forth in this section, provided, however, that application  for
such refund shall be made, by the petitioner or other person paying such
tax,  within  three years after the entry of the final order ordering or
adjudging or determining such assessment to have been excessive, unequal
or unlawful, or that real property was misclassified. The  time  of  the
pendency  of  any  appeal  in any such proceeding or from any such order
shall not be deemed part of such three years.  SUCH REFUND SHALL BE PAID
IN INSTALLMENTS FOR A PERIOD OF NO LESS THAN THREE YEARS.
  S 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
