New York City Council
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
Creating a centralized income verification system for all income-based homeowner property tax exemptions administered by the NYCDOF and authorizing NYC to use such system to determine applicants’ income eligibility for such exemptions.
