After a public hearing, the governing board of a county,\ncity, town or village may adopt a local law and a school district, other\nthan a school district subject to article fifty-two of the education\nlaw, may adopt a resolution to grant the exemption authorized pursuant\nto this section. A copy of such local law or resolution shall be filed\nwith the commissioner and the assessor of such county, city, town or\nvillage who prepares the assessment roll on which the taxes of such\ncounty, city, town, village or school district are levied.\n  2.

The\n"exemption base" shall be the increase in assessed value as determined\nin the initial year of the term of the exemption, except as provided in\nsubparagraph (ii) of this paragraph.\n  (ii) In any year in which a change in level of assessment of fifteen\npercent or more is certified for a final assessment roll pursuant to the\nrules of the commissioner, the exemption base shall be multiplied by a\nfraction, the numerator of which shall be the total assessed value of\nthe parcel on such final assessment roll (after accounting for any\nphysical or quantity changes to the parcel since the immediately\npreceding assessment roll), and the denominator of which shall be the\ntotal assessed value of the parcel on the immediately preceding final\nassessment roll. The result shall be the new exemption base. The\nexemption shall thereupon be recomputed to take into account the new\nexemption base, notwithstanding the fact that the assessor receives\ncertification of the change in level of assessment after the completion,\nverification and filing of the final assessment roll. In the event the\nassessor does not have custody of the roll when such certification is\nreceived, the assessor shall certify the recomputed exemption to the\nlocal officers having custody and control of the roll, and such local\nofficers are hereby directed and authorized to enter the recomputed\nexemption certified by the assessor on the roll.

Residential investment exemption; certain cities. 1.\nResidential real property constructed on or after the first day of\nApril, two thousand four in cities with a population of not less than\nthirty-four thousand and not more than thirty-five thousand based upon\nthe two thousand federal census may be exempt from city taxation and\nspecial ad valorem levies as provided in this section.\n  2. (a) (i) Such real property shall be exempt for a period of one year\nto the extent of fifty per centum of the increase in assessed value\nthereof attributable to such construction and for an additional period\nof nine years provided, however, that the extent of such exemption shall\nbe decreased by five per centum each year during such additional period\nof nine years and such exemption shall be computed with respect to the\n"exemption base". The exemption base shall be the increase in assessed\nvalue as determined in the initial year of such ten year period\nfollowing the filing of an original application, except as provided in\nsubparagraph (ii) of this paragraph.\n  (ii) In any year in which a change in level of assessment of fifteen\npercent or more is certified for a final assessment roll pursuant to the\nrules of the commissioner, the exemption base shall be multiplied by a\nfraction, the numerator of which shall be the total assessed value of\nthe parcel on such final assessment roll (after accounting for any\nphysical or quantity changes to the parcel since the immediately\npreceding assessment roll), and the denominator of which shall be the\ntotal assessed value of the parcel on the immediately preceding final\nassessment roll. The result shall be the new exemption base. The\nexemption shall thereupon be recomputed to take into account the new\nexemption base, notwithstanding the fact that the assessor receives the\ncertification of the change in level of assessment after the completion,\nverification and filing of the final assessment roll. In the event the\nassessor does not have custody of the roll when such certification is\nreceived, the assessor shall certify the recomputed exemption to the\nlocal officers having custody and control of the roll, and such local\nofficers are hereby directed and authorized to enter the recomputed\nexemption certified by the assessor on the roll. The assessor shall give\nwritten notice of such recomputed exemption to the property owner, who\nmay, if he or she believes that the exemption was recomputed\nincorrectly, apply for a correction in the manner provided by title\nthree of article five of this chapter for the correction of clerical\nerrors.\n  (iii) The following table shall illustrate the computation of the city\ntax exemption:\n      Year of exemption                      Percentage of exemption\n               1                                       50\n               2                                       45\n               3                                       40\n               4                                       35\n               5                                       30\n               6                                       25\n               7                                       20\n               8                                       15\n               9                                       10\n              10                                        5\n  (b) No such exemption shall be granted unless:\n  (i) such construction was commenced on or after the first day of\nApril, two thousand four or such later date as may be specified by local\nlaw;\n  (ii) the residential real property is situate in a city with a\npopulation of not less than thirty-four thousand and not more than\nthirty-five thousand based upon the two thousand federal census;\n  (iii) the cost of such construction exceeds the sum of seventy\nthousand dollars or such greater amount as may be specified by local\nlaw; and\n  (iv) such construction is completed as may be evidenced by a\ncertificate of occupancy or other appropriate documentation as provided\nby the owner.\n  (c) For purposes of this section the term construction shall not\ninclude ordinary maintenance and repairs.\n  3. Such exemption shall be granted only upon application by the owner\nof such real property on a form prescribed by the commissioner. Such\napplication shall be filed with the assessor of a city with a population\nof not less than thirty-four thousand and not more than thirty-five\nthousand based upon the two thousand federal census on or before the\nappropriate taxable status date of such city and within one year from\nthe date of completion of such construction.\n  4.

The provisions of this section shall apply to real property used as\nthe primary residence of the owner.\n  6. In the event that real property granted an exemption pursuant to\nthis section ceases to be used primarily for eligible purposes, the\nexemption granted pursuant to this section shall cease.\n  7. A city with a population of not less than thirty-four thousand and\nnot more than thirty-five thousand based upon the two thousand federal\ncensus may, by local law, reduce the per centum of exemption otherwise\nallowed pursuant to this section; provided, however, that a project in\ncourse of construction and exemptions existing prior in time to passage\nof any such local law shall not be subject to any such reduction so\neffected.  Such city upon reduction of the per centum of exemption\npursuant to this subdivision may thereafter, by local law, increase the\nper centum of exemption up to any per centum not exceeding the maximum\nallowed by subdivision two of this section, provided, however, that any\nsuch local law shall apply only to construction commenced subsequent to\nthe effective date of such local law. A copy of all such local laws\nshall be filed with the commissioner and the assessor of the city.\n  8. A city with a population of not less than thirty-four thousand and\nnot more than thirty-five thousand based upon the two thousand federal\ncensus may, by local law, establish a date for the commencement of\neffectiveness of exemption offered pursuant to this section and may\nprovide that the provisions of this section shall apply only to\nconstruction having a greater value than that specified by subdivision\ntwo of this section, provided, however, that such amount shall not\nexceed three hundred fifty thousand dollars.\n  9.

In addition, such\nplan shall identify specific geographic areas within which such\nexemptions should be offered. In developing the plan required by this\nparagraph, the board shall consider the planning objectives of a city\nwith a population of not less than thirty-four thousand and not more\nthan thirty-five thousand based upon the two thousand federal census,\nthe necessity of the exemption to the attraction or retention of home\nowners and the economic benefit to the area of providing exemptions to\nhome owners.\n  (c) In addition, the board may make recommendations to the legislative\nbody of a city with a population of not less than thirty-four thousand\nand not more than thirty-five thousand based upon the two thousand\nfederal census with respect to actions it deems desirable to improve the\neconomic climate therein.\n  10. If a city with a population of not less than thirty-four thousand\nand not more than thirty-five thousand based upon the two thousand\nfederal census establishes a residential incentive board, pursuant to\nsubdivision nine of this section, such city may, by local law, restrict\nreal property eligible to receive the exemption to real property\nconstructed for those purposes identified in the plan presented by the\nboard. Such local law shall restrict the availability of such exemption\nto the specific geographic areas identified in the plan presented by the\nboard.\n  11.
