   Section 1. The real property tax  law  is  amended  by  adding  a  new

   §  467-L.  ABATEMENT OF REAL PROPERTY TAXES FOR THE COST OF LEAD-BASED
 PAINT REMEDIATION TO CERTAIN RESIDENTIAL RENTAL BUILDINGS.  1.  RESIDEN-

 SUBSEQUENT TO THE EFFECTIVE DATE OF A LOCAL LAW  OR  RESOLUTION  ADOPTED
 PURSUANT  TO THIS SECTION SHALL RECEIVE A REAL PROPERTY TAX ABATEMENT TO
 THE EXTENT PROVIDED IN THIS SECTION. AFTER A PUBLIC HEARING, THE GOVERN-
 ING BOARD OF A CITY MAY ADOPT A LOCAL LAW TO GRANT THE ABATEMENT AUTHOR-
 IZED PURSUANT TO THIS SECTION. A COPY OF SUCH LOCAL  LAW  OR  RESOLUTION
 SHALL BE FILED WITH THE COMMISSIONER AND THE ASSESSOR OF SUCH CITY.
   2. AS USED IN THIS SECTION:
   A.  "LEAD-BASED  PAINT  REMEDIATION"  SHALL  MEAN  ANY SET OF MEASURES
 DESIGNED TO PERMANENTLY ELIMINATE LEAD-BASED PAINT OR  LEAD-BASED  PAINT

 DUST LEAD HAZARDS, THE PERMANENT ENCLOSURE  OR  ENCAPSULATION  OF  LEAD-

 INCLUDE  RENOVATION,  REMODELING,  LANDSCAPING OR OTHER ACTIVITIES, WHEN

 A  GIVEN  STRUCTURE  OR DWELLING, EVEN THOUGH THESE ACTIVITIES MAY INCI-
 DENTALLY RESULT IN  A  REDUCTION  OR  ELIMINATION  OF  LEAD-BASED  PAINT
