                                 BILL NUMBER:  S5151

 TITLE OF BILL :  An act to amend the tax law, in relation to
increasing the amount of the business franchise and person a income
tax credits for real property taxes paid by qualified manufacturers

 PURPOSE :

Increases from 20% to 100% the portion of real property taxes that a
manufacturer may take as a business franchise or personal income tax
credit.

 SUMMARY OF SPECIFIC PROVISIONS :

§ 1. Amends Section 210-B of the tax law to increase the manufacturer
real property tax credit from 20% to 100%.

§ 2 Amends Section 606 of the tax law to increase the manufacturer
real property tax credit from 20% to 100%.

§ 3 Effective date.

 JUSTIFICATION :

In the manufacturing industry and in business in general, many
expenses need to be covered to keep the doors open and people

employed. One of the largest expenses, one that a business owner has
no real control over, is their property taxes. Rising costs for doing
in business in New York is forcing manufacturing firms either to let
people go or to shut down entirely. One way the State has looked to
combat this issue is by allowing qualified manufacturing firms to get
a credit equal to 20% of their property tax bill.

This bill looks to build on this by increasing the tax credit to 100%.
This credit will provide a greater incentive for manufacturing firms
to stay in the state as well as be a continuous invitation for current
manufacturing business outside of the state to move here. In turn,
these new business will be creating new jobs, added wages for New York
residents, added revenue back in to the state economy, and an overall
increase in quality of life for the communities where manufacturing
businesses may choose to relocate in or choose to stay and grow in.

 LEGISLATIVE HISTORY :

New Legislation.

 FISCAL IMPLICATIONS :

To be determined.

 EFFECTIVE DATE :
This act shall take effect immediately and shall apply to the taxable
years commencing on or after January 1, 2017.
