       AN ACT to amend the real property tax  law,  in  relation  to  the  base

    1    Section 1. Paragraph (a) of subdivision 3 of section 1903 of the  real
    2  property tax law is amended by adding a new subparagraph (xv) to read as
    3  follows:
    4    (XV)  NOTWITHSTANDING  ANY  OTHER  PROVISION  OF  LAW,  IN AN APPROVED
    5  ASSESSING UNIT IN THE COUNTY OF NASSAU AND FOR CURRENT BASE  PROPORTIONS
    6  TO  BE  DETERMINED  BY TAXES BASED ON SUCH APPROVED ASSESSING UNIT'S TWO
    7  THOUSAND FOURTEEN ROLL, THE CURRENT BASE PROPORTION OF ANY  CLASS  SHALL
    8  NOT EXCEED THE ADJUSTED BASE PROPORTION OR ADJUSTED PROPORTION, WHICHEV-
    9  ER  IS  APPROPRIATE, OF THE IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING YEAR, BY MORE THAN ONE
   10  PERCENT, PROVIDED THAT SUCH APPROVED ASSESSING UNIT HAS PASSED  A  LOCAL
   11  LAW,  ORDINANCE  OR RESOLUTION PROVIDING THEREFOR. WHERE THE COMPUTATION
   12  OF CURRENT BASE PROPORTIONS WOULD OTHERWISE  PRODUCE  SUCH  RESULT,  THE
   13  CURRENT  BASE  PROPORTION  OF  SUCH CLASS OR CLASSES SHALL BE LIMITED TO
   14  SUCH ONE PERCENT INCREASE AND THE  LEGISLATIVE  BODY  OF  SUCH  APPROVED
   15  ASSESSING  UNIT  SHALL ALTER THE CURRENT BASE PROPORTION OF EITHER CLASS
   16  SO THAT THE SUM OF THE CURRENT BASE PROPORTIONS EQUALS ONE.
   17    S 2. This act shall take effect immediately and  shall  apply  to  the
   18  levy  of  taxes  based on the 2014 assessment roll in approved assessing
   19  units in the county of Nassau that pass a local law, ordinance or resol-
   20  ution to adopt these provisions.
