   Section  1. Paragraph (c) of subdivision 16 of section 425 of the real
 property tax law, as amended by section 5 of part A of chapter 73 of the
 laws of 2016, is amended to read as follows:
   (c) If the owners of a parcel that is  receiving  the  STAR  exemption
 authorized  by this section want to claim the personal income tax credit
 authorized by subsection (eee) of section six hundred six of the tax law
 in lieu of such exemption, they [all must] MAY DO SO BY SWITCHING TO THE
 CREDIT IN THE MANNER PROVIDED BY SUBDIVISION SEVENTEEN OF THIS  SECTION.
 ALTERNATIVELY,  THEY  MAY  renounce that exemption AND MAKE ANY REQUIRED
 PAYMENTS in the manner provided by section four  hundred  ninety-six  of
 this  chapter[, and must pay any required taxes, interest and penalties,
 on or before December thirty-first of the taxable year  for  which  they
 want to claim the credit]. Any such SWITCH TO THE CREDIT OR renunciation
 shall be irrevocable.
   §  2.  Section 425 of the real property tax law is amended by adding a
 new subdivision 17 to read as follows:
   17. SWITCHING TO THE STAR CREDIT. (A) THE COMMISSIONER  SHALL  DEVELOP
 PROCEDURES  TO  ENABLE PROPERTY OWNERS TO SWITCH FROM THE STAR EXEMPTION
 TO THE STAR CREDIT IN AS SIMPLE AND EXPEDITIOUS A MANNER AS PRACTICABLE.
   (B) SUCH PROCEDURES MAY ALLOW STAR EXEMPTION RECIPIENTS TO  SWITCH  TO
 THE  STAR  CREDIT IN THE COURSE OF APPLYING FOR THE STAR CREDIT. WHEN AN
 APPLICANT DOES SO, THE COMMISSIONER SHALL ADVISE THE APPROPRIATE  ASSES-
 SOR  AS  SOON  AS  PRACTICABLE  THAT SUCH INDIVIDUAL IS SWITCHING OR HAS
 SWITCHED TO THE STAR CREDIT, THAT NO  FURTHER  STAR  EXEMPTIONS  MAY  BE
 GRANTED  TO  THE PROPERTY IN QUESTION AFTER THE SWITCH TAKES EFFECT, AND
 IF APPROPRIATE, THAT THE PROPERTY'S STAR  EXEMPTION  SHOULD  BE  REMOVED
 FROM  THE  MOST  RECENTLY  FILED  ASSESSMENT ROLL AND/OR THE FORTHCOMING
 ASSESSMENT ROLL.  THE ASSESSOR OR OTHER PARTY HAVING CUSTODY AND CONTROL
 OF THE ASSESSMENT ROLL SHALL THEREUPON BE  AUTHORIZED  AND  DIRECTED  TO
 PROCEED ACCORDINGLY.
   (C)  SUCH  PROCEDURES  MAY  ALSO  SET  FORTH INSTANCES UNDER WHICH THE
 COMMISSIONER MAY DIRECT SUCH A SWITCH TO THE STAR CREDIT TO BE  DEFERRED
 FOR  ONE  YEAR,  WITH THE RESULTING DIFFERENTIAL, IF ANY, TO BE ADDED TO
 THE APPLICANT'S INITIAL STAR CREDIT. AS USED IN  THIS  SUBDIVISION,  THE
 TERM  "RESULTING DIFFERENTIAL" MEANS THE AMOUNT BY WHICH THE STAR CREDIT
 THAT THE APPLICANT DID NOT RECEIVE DUE TO THE  DEFERRAL  OF  THE  SWITCH
 EXCEEDS  THE  STAR  EXEMPTION TAX SAVINGS THAT THE APPLICANT DID RECEIVE
 DUE TO THE DEFERRAL OF THE  SWITCH.  THE  COMMISSIONER  IS  SPECIFICALLY
 AUTHORIZED TO DIRECT A SWITCH TO THE STAR CREDIT TO BE SO DEFERRED UNDER
 THE FOLLOWING CIRCUMSTANCES:
   (I)  A  STAR  CREDIT SWITCH MAY BE DEFERRED IF THE APPLICATION FOR THE
 CREDIT IS SUBMITTED AFTER A CUTOFF DATE SET BY  THE  COMMISSIONER.  WHEN
 SETTING A CUTOFF DATE, THE COMMISSIONER SHALL TAKE INTO ACCOUNT THE TIME
 REQUIRED  TO  ENSURE  THAT THE STAR EXEMPTIONS OF ALL STAR CREDIT APPLI-
 CANTS IN THE ASSESSING UNIT WILL BE REMOVED BEFORE SCHOOL TAX BILLS  ARE
 PREPARED.  THE  COMMISSIONER  SHALL  SPECIFY THE APPLICABLE CUTOFF DATES
 AFTER TAKING INTO ACCOUNT  LOCAL  ASSESSMENT  CALENDARS,  PROVIDED  THAT
 DIFFERENT  CUTOFF  DATES  MAY  BE  SET FOR MUNICIPALITIES WITH DIFFERENT
 ASSESSMENT CALENDARS, AND PROVIDED FURTHER THAT ANY SUCH CUTOFF DATE MAY
 BE NO EARLIER THAN THE FIFTEENTH DAY PRIOR TO  THE  DATE  ON  WHICH  THE
 APPLICABLE  FINAL ASSESSMENT ROLL IS REQUIRED BY LAW TO BE COMPLETED AND
 FILED.

 S. 6615                            11
 
   (II) A STAR CREDIT SWITCH  MAY  BE  DEFERRED  IF  THE  APPLICATION  IS
 SUBMITTED  AFTER  SCHOOL  TAX  BILLS  HAVE BEEN PREPARED, BUT BEFORE THE
 FIRST DAY OF JANUARY OF THE FOLLOWING YEAR, OR SUCH LATER  DATE  AS  THE
 COMMISSIONER SHALL ESTABLISH.
   (III)  A  STAR  CREDIT  SWITCH MAY BE DEFERRED IF THE APPLICANT'S STAR
 EXEMPTION IS NOT REMOVED FROM THE APPLICABLE ASSESSMENT ROLL IN A TIMELY
 MANNER DUE TO INADVERTENCE OR OTHER REASONS.
   (D) SUCH PROCEDURES MAY ALSO PROVIDE THAT BASIC STAR EXEMPTION RECIPI-
 ENTS WHOSE INCOMES EXCEEDS THE LIMIT APPLICABLE TO THAT EXEMPTION MAY BE
 AUTOMATICALLY ENROLLED IN AND SWITCHED TO THE BASIC STAR CREDIT IF THEIR
 INCOMES DO NOT EXCEED THE LIMIT APPLICABLE TO THAT CREDIT. EACH AFFECTED
 INDIVIDUAL SHALL BE NOTIFIED OF THE SWITCH AS SOON AS PRACTICABLE.  EACH
 SUCH NOTICE SHALL ALSO ADVISE THE INDIVIDUAL EITHER THAT THE COMMISSION-
 ER HAS DETERMINED THAT THE INDIVIDUAL IS ELIGIBLE  FOR  THE  CREDIT,  OR
 THAT  THE  INDIVIDUAL  MUST FURNISH ADDITIONAL INFORMATION TO ENABLE THE
 COMMISSIONER TO DETERMINE THE INDIVIDUAL'S ELIGIBILITY, AS THE CASE  MAY
 BE. IN EITHER CASE, ONCE THE INDIVIDUAL RECEIVES A STAR CREDIT CHECK AND
 DEPOSITS  OR ENDORSES IT, HE OR SHE SHALL BE DEEMED TO HAVE CONSENTED TO
 THE SWITCH AND SHALL NOT BE PERMITTED TO SWITCH BACK TO THE EXEMPTION.
   § 3. Subdivision 1 of section 510-a of the real property tax  law,  as
 amended  by  chapter  386  of  the  laws  of 2003, is amended to read as
 follows:
   1. Notwithstanding the provisions of any general, special or local law
 to the contrary, the assessors in towns, counties,  and  cities,  having
 power  to  determine  the  taxable  status  of property for tax purposes
 shall, not later than ten days prior to the date for hearing  complaints
 in  relation to assessments, or in the case of the city of New York, not
 later than thirty days prior to the final date  for  filing  an  appeal,
 mail to each owner of such real property in their town, city or county a
 notice of change which said assessors have made in the taxable status of
 such  property  from the status of (a) wholly exempt to taxable in whole
 or in part or (b) taxable in part to taxable in whole. Such notice shall
 include a statement of the date or dates and times at which the board of
 assessment review shall meet to hear complaints with respect to  assess-
 ments.  PROVIDED,  HOWEVER, THAT NO SUCH NOTICE SHALL BE REQUIRED WHEN A
 STAR EXEMPTION HAS BEEN REMOVED UPON THE REQUEST OF THE  PROPERTY  OWNER
 OR AT THE DIRECTION OF THE COMMISSIONER.
   § 4. Paragraph 5 of subsection (eee) of section 606 of the tax law, as
 amended  by  section  4 of part TT of chapter 59 of the laws of 2019, is
 amended to read as follows:
   (5) Disqualification. A taxpayer shall  not  qualify  for  the  credit
 authorized  by  this subsection if the parcel that serves as the taxpay-
 er's primary residence received the STAR  exemption  on  the  assessment
 roll  upon  which  school  district taxes for the associated fiscal year
 were levied. Provided,  however,  that  the  taxpayer  may  remove  this
 disqualification  by  SWITCHING  TO THE CREDIT IN THE MANNER PROVIDED BY
 SUBDIVISION SEVENTEEN OF SECTION FOUR HUNDRED TWENTY-FIVE  OF  THE  REAL
 PROPERTY  TAX LAW. ALTERNATIVELY, THE TAXPAYER MAY REMOVE THIS DISQUALI-
 FICATION BY renouncing the exemption [by December  thirty-first  of  the
 taxable year, as provided by subdivision sixteen of section four hundred
 twenty-five  of  the  real  property  tax  law,] and making any required
 payments [within the time frame prescribed] IN THE  MANNER  PROVIDED  by
 section  four  hundred ninety-six of the real property tax law. ANY SUCH
 SWITCH TO THE CREDIT OR RENUNCIATION SHALL BE IRREVOCABLE.
   § 5. This act shall take effect immediately and  shall  be  deemed  to
 have been in full force and effect on and after April 1, 2019.

 reduce its total exempt CFC income by forty  percent.  If  the  taxpayer
 makes  this election, the taxpayer must also make the elections provided

   (iv) For purposes of clause (E) of subparagraph (i) of this paragraph,

 business in this state if, for the immediately preceding four  quarterly
 periods  ending  on  the last day of February, May, August and November,
 the cumulative total of such person's gross receipts from sales of prop-
 erty delivered in this  state  exceeds  [three]  FIVE  hundred  thousand
 dollars  and  such  person  made more than one hundred sales of property
 delivered in this state, unless such  person  can  demonstrate,  to  the
 satisfaction  of the commissioner, that he cannot reasonably be expected
 to have gross receipts  in  excess  of  [three]  FIVE  hundred  thousand
 dollars  or  more  than  one hundred sales of property delivered in this

 added  by  section  1  of  part  G of chapter 59 of the laws of 2019, is
 amended to read as follows:
   (1) Marketplace provider. A person who, pursuant to an agreement  with
 a marketplace seller, facilitates sales of tangible personal property by
 such  marketplace  seller  or  sellers.  A person "facilitates a sale of
 tangible personal property" for purposes  of  this  paragraph  when  the
 person  meets both of the following conditions: (A) such person provides
 the forum in which, or by means of which, the sale takes  place  or  the
 offer  of sale is accepted, including a shop, store, or booth, an inter-
 net website, catalog, or similar forum; and (B) such person or an affil-
 iate of such person collects the  receipts  paid  by  a  customer  to  a
 marketplace  seller  for  a  sale  of  tangible  personal  property,  or
 contracts with a third party to collect such receipts. For  purposes  of
 this paragraph, a "sale of tangible personal property" shall not include
 the  rental  of  a  passenger car as described in section eleven hundred
 sixty of this chapter but shall include a lease described in subdivision
 (i) of section eleven hundred eleven of this article.  For  purposes  of
 this  paragraph,  persons  are affiliated if one person has an ownership
 interest of more than five  percent,  whether  direct  or  indirect,  in

 S. 6615                            17
 
 another,  or  where  an  ownership  interest  of more than five percent,
 whether direct or indirect, is held in each of such persons  by  another
 person  or  by a group of other persons that are affiliated persons with
 respect  to  each  other.  Notwithstanding anything in this paragraph, a
 person who is  not  otherwise  registered  pursuant  to  section  eleven
 hundred  thirty  four  of  this article is not a marketplace provider if
 such person has no physical presence in New York and, for the immediate-
 ly preceding four quarterly periods ending on the last day of  February,
 May,  August  and  November,  can  show  that the cumulative total gross
 receipts of sales it has made or facilitated of  property  delivered  in
 this state does not exceed [three] FIVE hundred thousand dollars or that
 such  person  has not made or facilitated more than one hundred sales of
 property delivered in this state. However,  such  person  may  elect  to
 register  as  a  marketplace  provider,  and,  once  registered, will be
 subject to the provisions of this article.
   § 3. Any person who is a vendor solely by  reason  of  clause  (E)  of
 subparagraph  (i)  of paragraph (8) of subdivision (b) of section eleven
 hundred one of the tax law, is registered to collect New York state  and
 local  sales  and  use  taxes,  and in good faith collected and remitted
 sales tax at the incorrect local rate, imposed pursuant to the authority
 of article 29 of the tax law, shall be liable for the  additional  sales
 tax  due  at such local rate but shall not be liable for any interest or
 penalties on such uncollected sales tax.
   Such relief from interest and penalties shall apply only to sales made
 by such person in the  immediately  succeeding  four  quarterly  periods
 ending  in  February,  May, August and November, after the date on which
 such person becomes a "person required to collect  tax"  as  defined  in
 subdivision (1) of section 1131 of the tax law.
   §  4.  This  act  shall  take  effect  immediately;  provided however,
 sections one and three of this act shall be deemed to have been in  full
 force  and effect on and after June 21, 2018 and section two of this act
 shall be deemed to have been in full force and effect on and after  June

 of  a  regulatory  agreement  with  a  local government agency and which
 buildings receive federal project based rental  assistance  administered
 by  the  United  States department of housing and urban development or a
 state or local section eight administering agency, where the rent set by
 the federal, state or local governmental agency is less than  the  legal
 regulated  rent  for  the  housing accommodation, the amount of rent for

 regulated  rent,  as  adjusted  by the most recent applicable guidelines
 increases or other increases authorized by  law;  and  further  provided
 that  such vacancy shall not be caused by the failure of the owner or an
 agent of the owner, to maintain the housing accommodation in  compliance

   (9)  The  division of housing and community renewal and the courts, in
 investigating complaints of overcharge and in  determining  legal  regu-
 lated  rents, shall consider all available rent history which is reason-
 ably necessary to make such determinations, including but not limited to
 (a) any rent registration or other records filed with the state division
 of housing and community renewal,  or  any  other  state,  municipal  or
 federal  agency, regardless of the date to which the information on such
 registration refers; (b) any order issued by  any  state,  municipal  or
 federal  agency; (c) any records maintained by the owner or tenants; and
 (d) any public record kept in the regular  course  of  business  by  any
 state,  municipal or federal agency. Nothing contained in this paragraph
 shall limit the examination of rent history relevant to a  determination
 as to:
   (i)  whether  the legality of a rental amount charged or registered is
 reliable in light of all available evidence including, but  not  limited
 to, whether an unexplained increase in the registered or lease rents, or
 a  fraudulent  scheme to destabilize the housing accommodation, rendered
 such rent or registration unreliable;
   (ii) whether an accommodation  is  subject  to  the  emergency  tenant
 protection act;
   (iii) whether an order issued by the division of housing and community
 renewal or a court of competent jurisdiction, including, but not limited
 to  an  order  issued  pursuant to section [26-514 of the administrative
 code of the city of New York] SEVEN  OF  THIS  ACT,  or  any  regulatory
 agreement  or other contract with any governmental agency, and remaining
 in effect within six years of the filing of a complaint pursuant to this
 section, affects or limits the amount of rent that  may  be  charged  or
 collected;
   (iv) whether an overcharge was or was not willful;
   (v)  whether a rent adjustment that requires information regarding the
 length of occupancy by a present or prior tenant was lawful;
   (vi) the existence or terms and conditions of a preferential rent,  or
 the  propriety  of  a  legal  registered  rent  during a period when the
 tenants were charged a preferential rent;

 to the registration of a preferential rent; or
   (viii)  the amount of the legal regulated rent where the apartment was
 vacant or temporarily exempt on the date six years prior to  a  tenant's
 complaint.
   §  14.  Subparagraph  (b)  of  paragraph 9 of subdivision c of section
 26-511 of the administrative code of the city of New York, as amended by
 section 2 of part I of chapter 36 of the laws of  2019,  is  amended  to
 read as follows:

 S. 6615                            29
 
   (b)  where  he or she seeks to recover possession of one dwelling unit
 because of immediate  and  compelling  necessity  for  his  or  her  own
 personal  use  and  occupancy as his or her primary residence or for the
 use and occupancy of a member of his or her immediate family as  his  or
 her  primary  residence,  provided however, that this subparagraph shall
 permit recovery of only one dwelling unit and shall not  apply  where  a
 tenant or the spouse of a tenant lawfully occupying the dwelling unit is
 sixty-two years of age or older, has been a tenant in a dwelling unit in
 that  building  for  fifteen  years  or more, or has an impairment which
 results from  anatomical,  physiological  or  psychological  conditions,
 other  than addiction to alcohol, gambling, or any controlled substance,
 which are demonstrable by medically acceptable clinical  and  laboratory
 diagnostic  techniques, and which are expected to be permanent and which
 prevent the tenant from engaging in any substantial gainful  employment,
 unless such owner offers to provide and if requested, provides an equiv-
 alent  or superior housing accommodation at the same or lower stabilized
 rent in a closely proximate area. The provisions  of  this  subparagraph
 shall  only  permit  one  of  the  individual  owners of any building to
 recover possession of one dwelling unit for his or her own personal  use
 and/or  for  that of his or her immediate family. A dwelling unit recov-
 ered by an owner pursuant to this subparagraph shall not for a period of
 three years be rented, leased, subleased or assigned to any person other
 than a person for whose benefit recovery of the dwelling unit is permit-
 ted pursuant to this subparagraph or to the tenant in occupancy  at  the
 time  of  recovery under the same terms as the original lease; provided,
 however, that a tenant required to surrender a [housing accommodation by
 virtue of the operation of subdivision g or h of section 26-408 of  this
 title]  DWELLING  UNIT  UNDER  THIS  SUBPARAGRAPH  shall have a cause of
 action in any court of competent jurisdiction for damages,  declaratory,
 and  injunctive  relief  against a landlord or purchaser of the premises
 who makes a fraudulent statement regarding a proposed use of the housing
 accommodation. In any action or  proceeding  brought  pursuant  to  this
 subparagraph a prevailing tenant shall be entitled to recovery of actual
 damages, and reasonable attorneys' fees.  This subparagraph shall not be
 deemed to establish or eliminate any claim that the former tenant of the
 dwelling  unit  may  otherwise  have against the owner. Any such rental,
 lease, sublease or assignment during such period to any other person may
 be subject to a penalty of a forfeiture of the right to any increases in
 residential rents in such building for a period of three years; or
   § 15. Subdivision a of section 10 of section 4 of chapter 576  of  the
 laws  of 1974, constituting the emergency tenant protection act of nine-
 teen seventy-four, as amended by section 3 of part I of  chapter  36  of
 the laws of 2019, is amended to read as follows:
   a.  For  cities having a population of less than one million and towns
 and villages, the state division of housing and community renewal  shall
 be  empowered  to  implement  this  act by appropriate regulations. Such
 regulations may encompass such speculative or manipulative practices  or
 renting or leasing practices as the state division of housing and commu-
 nity  renewal determines constitute or are likely to cause circumvention
 of this act. Such regulations shall prohibit practices which are  likely
 to prevent any person from asserting any right or remedy granted by this
 act,  including  but  not limited to retaliatory termination of periodic
 tenancies and shall require owners to grant a new one or two year vacan-
 cy or renewal lease at the option of the tenant, except where a mortgage
 or mortgage commitment existing as of the local effective date  of  this
 act  provides that the owner shall not grant a one-year lease; and shall

 S. 6615                            30
 
 prescribe standards with respect to the terms and conditions of new  and
 renewal  leases,  additional  rent  and such related matters as security
 deposits, advance rental payments, the use of escalator clauses in leas-
 es and provision for increase in rentals for garages and other ancillary
 facilities,  so as to [insure] ENSURE that the level of rent adjustments
 authorized under this law will not be subverted  and  made  ineffective.
 Any  provision of the regulations permitting an owner to refuse to renew
 a lease on grounds that the owner seeks to recover possession of a hous-
 ing accommodation for his or her own use and occupancy or  for  the  use
 and  occupancy  of  his or her immediate family shall permit recovery of
 only one housing accommodation, shall require that an owner  demonstrate
 immediate and compelling need and that the housing accommodation will be
 the  proposed  occupants'  primary residence and shall not apply where a
 member of the housing accommodation is sixty-two years of age or  older,
 has  been  a  tenant  in  a  housing  accommodation in that building for
 fifteen years or more, or has an impairment which results  from  anatom-
 ical, physiological or psychological conditions, other than addiction to
 alcohol,  gambling,  or any controlled substance, which are demonstrable
 by medically acceptable clinical and laboratory  diagnostic  techniques,
 and which are expected to be permanent and which prevent the tenant from
 engaging  in any substantial gainful employment; provided, however, that
 a tenant required to surrender a housing accommodation [by virtue of the
 operation of subdivision g or h of section 26-408 of the  administrative
 code  of the city of New York] UNDER THIS SUBDIVISION shall have a cause
 of action in any court of competent jurisdiction for damages, declarato-
 ry, and injunctive relief against a landlord or purchaser of  the  prem-
 ises  who  makes  a fraudulent statement regarding a proposed use of the
 housing accommodation. In any action or proceeding brought  pursuant  to
 this  subdivision  a  prevailing tenant shall be entitled to recovery of
 actual damages, and reasonable attorneys' fees.

 the  laws  of 1946, constituting the emergency housing rent control law,
 as amended by section 4 of part I of chapter 36 of the laws of 2019,  is
 amended to read as follows:
   (a)  the landlord seeks in good faith to recover possession of a hous-
 ing accommodation because of immediate and compelling necessity for  his
 or her own personal use and occupancy as his or her primary residence or
 for the use and occupancy of his or her immediate family as their prima-
 ry  residence; provided, however, this subdivision shall permit recovery
 of only one housing accommodation and shall not apply where a member  of
 the  household lawfully occupying the housing accommodation is sixty-two
 years of age or older, has been a tenant in a housing  accommodation  in
 that  building  for  fifteen  years  or more, or has an impairment which
 results from  anatomical,  physiological  or  psychological  conditions,
 other  than addiction to alcohol, gambling, or any controlled substance,
 which are demonstrable by medically acceptable clinical  and  laboratory
 diagnostic  techniques, and which are expected to be permanent and which
 prevent the tenant from engaging in any substantial gainful  employment;
 provided,  however, that a tenant required to surrender a housing accom-
 modation [by virtue of the operation of subdivision g or  h  of  section
 26-408  of  the  administrative code of the city of New York] UNDER THIS
 PARAGRAPH shall have a cause of action in any court of competent  juris-
 diction  for damages, declaratory, and injunctive relief against a land-
 lord or purchaser of the  premises  who  makes  a  fraudulent  statement
 regarding  a proposed use of the housing accommodation. In any action or
 proceeding brought pursuant to this paragraph a prevailing tenant  shall

 be  entitled  to  recovery  of actual damages, and reasonable attorneys'
 fees; or

 contained  herein,  no  hardship increase granted pursuant to this para-
 graph shall, when added to the annual gross rents, as determined by  the
 commissioner, exceed the sum of, (i) the annual operating expenses, (ii)

 its indebtedness to a  lending  institution,  an  insurance  company,  a
 retirement  fund or welfare fund which is operated under the supervision
 of the banking or insurance laws of the state of New York or the  United
 States,  and (iv) eight and one-half percent of that portion of the fair
 market value of the property which exceeds the unpaid  principal  amount
 of  the  mortgage indebtedness referred to in subparagraph (iii) of this
 paragraph. Fair market value for the purposes of this paragraph shall be

 exceed six percent in any year from the  effective  date  of  the  order
 granting  the  increase over the rent set forth in the schedule of gross
 rents, with collectability of any dollar excess above  said  sum  to  be
 spread forward in similar increments and added to the stabilized rent as
 established or set in future years;
