A taxpayer shall be 5 allowed a credit, to be computed as hereinafter provided, against the 6 tax imposed by this article. The amount of the credit shall be twenty- 7 five percent of the taxpayer's qualified rehabilitation expenditures 8 paid or incurred within the five years immediately preceding the year in 9 which such tax credit shall be applied with respect to any barn located 10 in this state which qualifies as an historic barn pursuant to subdivi- 11 sion five of section four hundred eighty-three-b of the real property 12 tax law. For purposes of this paragraph, the term "barn" means a build- 13 ing that is or was used as an agricultural facility or for purposes 14 related to agriculture.

Provided further 18 that no rehabilitation credit shall be allowed for any rehabilitation of 19 a barn which, immediately prior to the commencement of such rehabili- 20 tation, was used for residential purposes, or which converts a barn not 21 suitable for residential purposes into one which is so suitable, nor 22 shall a rehabilitation credit be allowed for any rehabilitation that 23 materially alters the historic appearance of the barn. If the amount of 24 credit allowable under this subsection shall exceed the taxpayer's tax 25 for such year and the taxpayer's New York adjusted gross income for such EXPLANATION--Matter in italics (underscored) is new; matter in brackets [] is old law to be omitted.
