Permits an assessing unit within the town of Neversink, county of Sullivan, to file their tentative assessment roll for 2018 no later than June 30, 2018.

BILL NUMBER: S8910A

SPONSOR: BONACIC
 
TITLE OF BILL:  An act to extend the tentative and final assessment
roll filing dates for the town of Neversink, in the county of Sullivan

 
PURPOSE OR GENERAL IDEA OF BILL:

Authorizes the town of Neversink, Sullivan County, upon passage of a
local law or resolution, to cancel any previously issued tentative
assessment roll, and file a corrected tentative assessment roll by no
later than June 30, 2018. The bill permits the town to schedule a new
date to hear grievances from taxpayers on their tentative assessments.

 
SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS:

Section 1: (a) Authorizes the assessor for the town of Neversink, Sulli-
van County, to file the town's 2018 tentative assessment roll by no
later than June 30, 2018, following the specific provisions included in
this act. (b) Authorizes the Neversink assessing unit, pursuant to the
adoption of a local law or resolution, to postpone the filing of the

tentative assessment roll to a date no later than June 30, 2018. Cancels
any previously issued tentative roll for 2018.  Requires a copy of such
local law or resolution to be filed with the state Office of Real Prop-
erty Services. (c) Requires that such local law or resolution direct the
assessor to file the tentative roll by a specific date; requires the
town to notify all property owners whose assessments have increased, and
requires the town to set a new grievance date for complaints to be heard
from the town's taxpayers.

Section 2: Establishes an effective date retroactive to March 1, 2018.

 
JUSTIFICATION:

Due to administrative errors attributable to a 3rd party vendor, the
town of Neversink, Sullivan County, filed a tentative assessment roll
containing more than 500 errors in a town of fewer than 4,000 residents.
The errors were not discovered until the regularly scheduled Grievance
Day on May 22, 2018. Included in the grouping of errors was every eligi-
ble Enhanced STAR recipient, which represents more than 250 individuals.
Others errors include computation of the additional veterans'
exemptions, agricultural exemptions and every increase in value attrib-
utable to construction, renovation and demolition.

Canceling the previously issued assessment roll and allowing for a new
tentative roll to be filed, in addition to the authorization for the
town to establish a new Grievance Day, would be of benefit to the resi-
dent property taxpayers of the town, especially the Enhanced STAR recip-
ients.

Enactment of this legislation would lift a heavy burden from the town's
administration in addressing all these errors without relief from the
State.

 
PRIOR LEGISLATIVE HISTORY:

New bill.

 
FISCAL IMPLICATIONS FOR STATE AND LOCAL GOVERNMENTS:
None. Allows for the accurate levy of taxes for the affected community.

 
EFFECTIVE DATE:
This act shall take effect immediately and would be retroactive to March
1, 2018.

   (c) The governing body of such an assessing unit may adopt a local law

 and notify the assessor of its determinations.
   §  2.  This  act  shall take effect immediately and shall be deemed to
 have been in full force and effect on and after March 1, 2018.
