TITLE OF BILL:  An act to amend the real property tax law, in relation
to tax exemptions for community land trusts and income-restricted
homeownership properties

 
PURPOSE:

This bill amends the real property tax law to require that certain real
property owned by a Community Land Trust, which operates in accordance
with Section 213 of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1992
and is organized as a housing development fund company pursuant to Arti-
cle XI of the Private Housing Finance Law and Section 402 of the Not-
for-Profit Corporation Law, which must be operated in furtherance of
persons and families of low income as defined by Section 2(19) of the
Private Housing Finance Law, receive both a full and partial tax
exemption on the land and the improvements thereon.

This bill also amends real property tax law to require a partial real
property tax exemption for certain income-restricted homeownership prop-
erty that is subject to the terms of a regulatory agreement with a

supervising agency, which shall be the New York City Department of Hous-
ing Preservation and Development for New York City and the Division of
Housing and Community Renewal for all other community land trusts
outside of New York City, or is located on any community land trust
formed pursuant to Section 402 of the Not-for-Profit Corporation Law and
which is located in a city or municipality with a population of less
than one million without a regulatory agreement with a supervising agen-
cy, which property taxes shall be, other than assessments for local
improvements, paid on the income-restricted homeownership property, both
land and improvements, to the extent such land is not otherwise subject
to an exemption, in an amount not to exceed either twenty percent of the
carrying charges of such income-restricted homeownership property, or
the maximum resale price of the single or two-family home or multiple
dwelling, as required by either a regulatory agreement with the super-
vising agency or in the absence thereof, pursuant to the restrictions
set forth in the ground lease between the community land trust and the
owner of such single or two-family home or multiple dwelling. The legis-
lation also authorizes the supervising agency to promulgate suitable
rules and regulations to carry out the subsection.

 
SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS:

This bill adds a new subsection 420-8(16) to the Real Property Tax Law
to permit land that is owned by a Community Land Trust to qualify for a
real property tax exemption. It further adds a new subsection 422(3) to
the Real Property Tax Law to require a partial real property tax
exemption for certain income-restricted homeownership property, includ-
ing improvements that are erected on a Community Land Trust, for
purposes of determining property taxes. The purpose of both new sections
of law are to ensure that income-restricted homeownership property,
including improvements that are erected on land which is owned by a
Community Land Trust, are not property tax burdened in a way that could
impact the affordability of such permanently affordable homeownership
housing. This bill shall provide property tax relief to a Community Land
Trust and owners of improvements thereon, as well as certain qualifying
owners of income-restricted homeownership property that is subject to
permanent affordability restrictions due to supervising agency program
requirements, such as inclusionary housing programs, or is located on
any community land trust formed pursuant to Section 402 of the Not-for-
Profit Corporation Law and which is located in a city or municipality
with a population of less than one million without a regulatory agree-
ment with a supervising agency.

 
LEGISLATIVE HISTORY:

New Bill.

 
FISCAL IMPLICATIONS:

None to the State.

 
EFFECTIVE DATE:
This act shall take effect immediately and shall apply to all assessment
rolls published after the date this act shall have become a law.
