What this can and cannot do

This is a request, not a law. The City Council is asking the New York State Legislature and the Governor to act, because the subject is outside the city's authority. Passing it commits the city to a position; it does not change the rule.

Summary

Establish an abatement and exemption from real property taxes for capital improvements to reduce carbon emissions. (S.943-A/A.5050)
