Summary of Assembly Bill A 6167

Overview

Bill A 6167 would authorize Ministerio Sion New York, Inc. to retroactively apply for a real property tax exemption for certain property. The measure reflects a prospective change in eligibility treatment by permitting a retroactive filing for an exemption that would otherwise be applied only going forward. The bill was introduced on February 26, 2025 and has been referred to the Real Property Taxation committee.

What the bill would do (at a glance)

  • Authorizes retroactive filing for a real property tax exemption on property owned or used by Ministerio Sion New York, Inc. for a specified property.
  • The exemption in question is described only by title as a “real property tax exemption for certain property,” with the bill text not provided here revealing the exact exemption type or qualifying criteria.
  • The retroactive application would potentially align the exemption eligibility with the organization’s past use or ownership circumstances, subject to applicable state tax law and committee review.

Note: The provided materials do not include the detailed criteria, retroactive period, or administrative procedures that would govern the exemption process. Full text would be needed to determine exact eligibility conditions and retroactive start/end dates.

  • Legal/eligibility: Details such as the retroactive period, documentation requirements, and any sunset or renewal conditions will determine actual impact and administrative burden.
