        Introduced  by Sen. KAMINSKY -- read twice and ordered printed, and when
          printed to be committed to the Committee on Local Government
        AN ACT to amend the real property tax  law,  in  relation  to  the  base
          proportion in approved assessing units in Nassau county
          The  People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and Assem-
        bly, do enact as follows:
     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 (xvii) to read
     3  as follows:
     4    (xvii) 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  sixteen  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    §  2.  This  act  shall take effect immediately and shall apply to the
    18  levy of taxes based on the 2016 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.
