Payment of 5 such salary increase may be deferred pursuant to section sixteen of this 6 act. 7 § 16. Deferred payment of salary increases. Notwithstanding the 8 provisions of any other section of this act or of any other provision of 9 law to the contrary, pending payment pursuant to this act of the basic 10 annual salaries of incumbents of positions subject to this act, such 11 incumbents shall receive, as partial compensation for services rendered, 12 the rate of salary and other compensation otherwise payable in their 13 respective positions. An incumbent holding a position subject to this act 14 at any time during the period from April 1, 2015, until the time when 15 basic annual salaries and other compensation due are first paid pursuant 16 to this act for such services in excess of the salary and other compen- 17 sation actually received therefor, shall be entitled to a lump sum 18 payment for the difference between the salary and other compensation to 19 which such incumbent is entitled for such services and the salary and 20 other compensation actually received. Notwithstanding the provisions of 21 this section or of any other section of this act, the lump sum payments 22 resulting from the increases in salary and other compensation pursuant to 23 this act shall be aggregated in the form of a lump sum payment and made 24 to employees in two equal payments. However, effective the pay period 25 closest to March 31, 2019, the denominator for purposes of calculating 26 overtime shall be adjusted consistent with such interest arbitration 27 award and recalculation of the overtime earned subsequent to March 31, 28 2019 will be reconciled, adjusted and applied in the first retroactive 29 payment referenced herein. The first payment shall be paid as soon as 30 practicable after the passage of legislation implementing a Final Deci- 31 sion and Award covering the period April 1, 2015 to March 31, 2019 and 32 the second payment shall be paid on the first day of the payroll period 33 commencing after April 1, 2021. For the purpose of calculating retirement 34 benefits, the amounts paid under this act shall count as compensation 35 earned during the year or years for which it is calculated and not as 36 compensation earned wholly in the year in which it is paid. Notwith- 37 standing any law, rule or regulation to the contrary, no member of the 38 agency police services unit to whom the provisions of this act apply 39 shall be entitled to, or owed, any interest or other penalty for any 40 reason on any monies due to such member pursuant to the terms of this act 41 and the terms of the agreement or interest arbitration award covering 42 employees in the agency police services unit. 43 § 17.

The section heading of section 421-f of the real property 5 tax law, as amended by chapter 590 of the laws of 1994, is amended to 6 read as follows: 7 Exemption of capital improvements to residential buildings and certain 8 new construction. 9 § 2. Section 421-f of the real property tax law is amended by adding a 10 new subdivision 1-a to read as follows: 11 1-a. Buildings classified as class one property in section eighteen 12 hundred two of this chapter reconstructed, altered, improved, or newly 13 constructed in a special assessing unit that is not a city shall be 14 exempt from taxation and special ad valorem levies to the extent 15 provided hereinafter in the same manner and to the same extent to coun- 16 ty, town, special district and school district taxes levied on the 17 assessment roll prepared by such special assessing unit. Additional 18 buildings and yard improvements shall be excluded from receiving this 19 exemption. An application shall not be required to receive the 20 exemption. 21 § 3. Subdivisions 2 and 3 of section 421-f of the real property tax 22 law, as amended by chapter 590 of the laws of 1994, subparagraph (ii) of 23 paragraph (a) of subdivision 2 and subdivision 3 as further amended by 24 subdivision (b) of section 1 of part W of chapter 56 of the laws of 25 2010, are amended to read as follows: 26 2. (a) Such buildings shall be exempt for a period of one year to the 27 extent of one hundred per centum of the increase in assessed value ther- 28 eof attributable to such reconstruction, alteration or improvement, and 29 new construction pursuant to subdivision one-a of this section, and for 30 an additional period of seven years subject to the following: 31 (i) The extent of such exemption shall be decreased by twelve and 32 one-half per centum of the "exemption base" each year during such addi- 33 tional period. The "exemption base" shall be the increase in assessed 34 value as determined in the initial year of the term of the exemption, 35 except as provided in subparagraph (ii) of this paragraph. 36 (ii) In any year in which a change in level of assessment of fifteen 37 percent or more is certified for a final assessment roll pursuant to the 38 rules of the commissioner, the exemption base shall be multiplied by a 39 fraction, the numerator of which shall be the total assessed value of 40 the parcel on such final assessment roll (after accounting for any phys- 41 ical or quantity changes to the parcel since the immediately preceding 42 assessment roll), and the denominator of which shall be the total 43 assessed value of the parcel on the immediately preceding final assess- 44 ment roll. The result shall be the new exemption base. The exemption 45 shall thereupon be recomputed to take into account the new exemption 46 base, notwithstanding the fact that the assessor receives certification 47 of the change in level of assessment after the completion, verification 48 and filing of the final assessment roll. In the event the assessor does 49 not have custody of the roll when such certification is received, the 50 assessor shall certify the recomputed exemption to the local officers 51 having custody and control of the roll, and such local officers are 52 hereby directed and authorized to enter the recomputed exemption certi- 53 fied by the assessor on the roll. The assessor shall give written notice 54 of such recomputed exemption to the property owner, who may, if he orS. 2505--C 33 A. 3005--C 1 she believes that the exemption was recomputed incorrectly, apply for a 2 correction in the manner provided by title three of article five of this 3 chapter for the correction of clerical errors. 4 (iii) [Such] Except in a special assessing unit that is not a city, 5 such exemption shall be limited to eighty thousand dollars in increased 6 market value, or such other sum less than eighty thousand dollars, but 7 not less than five thousand dollars as may be provided by the local law 8 or resolution, of the property attributable to such reconstruction, 9 alteration or improvement and any increase in market value greater than 10 such amount shall not be eligible for the exemption pursuant to this 11 section. In a special assessing unit that is not a city, the exemption 12 shall be limited to seven hundred fifty thousand dollars in increased 13 market value. For the purposes of this section, the market value of the 14 reconstruction, alteration or improvement, or new construction as 15 authorized by subdivision one-a of this section, shall be equal to the 16 increased assessed value attributable to such reconstruction, alteration 17 [or], improvement or new construction divided by the class [I] one ratio 18 in a special assessing unit or the most recently established state 19 equalization rate or special equalization rate in the remainder of the 20 state, except where the state equalization rate or special equalization 21 rate equals or exceeds ninety-five percent, in which case the increase 22 in assessed value attributable to such reconstruction, alteration [or], 23 improvement or new construction shall be deemed to equal the market 24 value of such reconstruction, alteration or improvement. 25 (b) [No] Except in a special assessing unit that is not a city, no 26 such exemption shall be granted for reconstruction, alterations or 27 improvements unless: 28 (i) such reconstruction, alteration or improvement was commenced 29 subsequent to the effective date of the local law or resolution adopted 30 pursuant to subdivision one of this section; and 31 (ii) the value of such reconstruction, alteration or improvement 32 exceeds three thousand dollars; and 33 (iii) the greater portion, as so determined by square footage, of the 34 building reconstructed, altered or improved is at least five years old. 35 (c) For purposes of this section the terms reconstruction, alteration 36 and improvement shall not include ordinary maintenance and repairs. 37 3. [Such] Except in a special assessing unit that is not a city, such 38 exemption shall be granted only upon application by the owner of such 39 building on a form prescribed by the commissioner. The application shall 40 be filed with the assessor of the city, town, village or county having 41 the power to assess property for taxation on or before the appropriate 42 taxable status date of such city, town, village or county. In a special 43 assessing unit that is not a city, the exemption shall be applied based 44 upon that completion of reconstruction, alteration, improvement or new 45 construction on or before the applicable taxable status date of the 46 special assessing unit; provided, however that the exemption for such 47 reconstruction, alteration, improvement or new construction that 48 occurred after the taxable status date of such special assessing unit 49 for the two thousand nineteen -- two thousand twenty assessment roll 50 and on or before the taxable status date of such special assessing unit 51 for the two thousand twenty -- two thousand twenty-one assessment roll 52 shall be applied beginning with the two thousand twenty-one -- two thou- 53 sand twenty-two assessment roll. 54 § 4. Subdivisions 5, 6 and 7 of section 421-f of the real property tax 55 law, as amended by chapter 590 of the laws of 1994, are amended to read 56 as follows:S. 2505--C 34 A. 3005--C 1 5.

In the event that a building granted an exemption pursuant to this 6 section ceases to be used primarily for residential purposes [or], is no 7 longer classified as class one property in a special assessing unit that 8 is not a city, or title thereto is transferred to other than the heirs 9 or distributees of the owner in other than a special assessing unit that 10 is not a city, the exemption granted pursuant to this section shall 11 cease. 12 7. (a) [A] Except for a special assessing unit that is not a city, a 13 county, city, town or village may, by its local law, or school district, 14 by its resolution: 15 (i) reduce the per centum of exemption otherwise allowed pursuant to 16 this section; 17 (ii) limit eligibility for the exemption to those forms of recon- 18 struction, alterations or improvements as are prescribed in such local 19 law or resolution; 20 (iii) provide that the exemption shall be applicable only to those 21 improvements which would otherwise result in an increase in the assessed 22 valuation of the real property but which consist of an addition, remod- 23 eling or modernization to an existing residential structure to prevent 24 physical deterioration of the structure or to comply with applicable 25 building, sanitary, health and/or fire codes. 26 (b) No such local law or resolution shall reduce or repeal an 27 exemption granted pursuant to this section until the expiration of the 28 period for which such exemption was granted. 29 § 5. Effect of exemption. A special assessing unit that is not a city 30 shall not consider property exempt pursuant to subdivision 1-a of 31 section 421-f of the real property tax law when calculating tax rates or 32 when apportioning taxes among classes under article 18 of the real prop- 33 erty tax law. 34 § 6. Severability. If any clause, sentence, paragraph, section or part 35 of this act shall be adjudged by any court of competent jurisdiction to 36 be invalid and after exhaustion of all further judicial review, the 37 judgment shall not affect, impair or invalidate the remainder thereof, 38 but shall be confined in its operation to the clause, sentence, para- 39 graph, section or part of this act directly involved in the controversy 40 in which the judgment shall have been rendered. 41 § 7. This act shall take effect immediately; provided however, that 42 subdivision 1-a and the amendments made to the section heading and 43 subdivisions 2, 3, 5, 6 and 7 of section 421-f of the real property tax 44 law by sections one through four of this act shall apply only to the 45 2021-2022, 2022-2023, 2023-2024 and 2024-2025 assessment rolls of the 46 county of Nassau, and shall expire and be deemed repealed January 1, 47 2026. 48 PART XX 49 Section 1.

Contingent upon available funding, and not to exceed 54 [$69,000,000] $140,000,000 moneys from the urban development corporationS. 2505--C 35 A. 3005--C 1 shall be available for a local government entity, which for the purposes 2 of this section shall mean a county, city, town, village, school 3 district or special district, where (i) on or after June 25, 2015, an 4 electric generating facility located within such local government entity 5 has ceased operations, and (ii) the closing of such facility has caused 6 a reduction in the real property tax collections or payments in lieu of 7 taxes of at least twenty percent owed by such electric generating facil- 8 ity. Such moneys attributable to the cessation of operations, shall be 9 paid annually on a first come, first served basis by the urban develop- 10 ment corporation to such local government entity within a reasonable 11 time upon confirmation from the state office of real property tax 12 services or the local industrial development authority established 13 pursuant to titles eleven and fifteen of article eight of the public 14 authorities law, or the local industrial development agency established 15 pursuant to article eighteen-A of the general municipal law that such 16 cessation has resulted in a reduction in the real property tax 17 collections or payments in lieu of taxes, provided, however, that the 18 urban development corporation shall not provide assistance to such local 19 government entity for more than seven years, and shall award payments 20 reflecting the loss of revenues due to the cessation of operations as 21 follows: 22 Award Year Maximum Potential Award 23 1 no more than eighty percent of loss of revenues 24 2 no more than seventy percent of loss of revenues 25 3 no more than sixty percent of loss of revenues 26 4 no more than fifty percent of loss of revenues 27 5 no more than forty percent of loss of revenues 28 6 no more than thirty percent of loss of revenues 29 7 no more than twenty percent of loss of revenues 30 A local government entity shall be eligible for only one payment of 31 funds hereunder per year.

Upon certification by the 9 commissioner of environmental conservation to the commissioner of gener- 10 al services of a copy of the contract, and certification that Alle-Catt 11 Wind Energy LLC has complied with all terms and conditions of the 12 contract upon their part to be kept and performed, together with a 13 description of any of the easements to be exchanged, conveyed and/or 14 payments to be made, the commissioner of general services shall convey 15 the easements described in section one of this act in accordance with 16 the provisions of the contract. 17 § 4. This act shall take effect immediately, and shall expire and be 18 deemed repealed five years after such date; provided, however, should 19 the easements be granted within the five years, the term of the ease- 20 ments will establish the end date of the easements. At such time the 21 land will revert back to the state of New York for state forest 22 purposes. 23 PART BBB 24 Section 1.
