Summary of Bill A 8117

Overview

  • Bill Number: A 8117
  • Title: Authorizes the county of Nassau assessor to accept an application for a retroactive real property tax exemption from the Incorporated Village of Hempstead Community Development Agency
  • Status: Referred to Real Property Taxation
  • Introduced: May 1, 2025
  • Sponsor: Noah Burroughs (primary)
  • Related measures: A 9482 (prior-session), A 6006 (prior-session); S 8330 (companion, same reference)

Purpose and Intent

The bill would authorize the Nassau County assessor to accept an application for a retroactive real property tax exemption that originates from the Incorporated Village of Hempstead Community Development Agency (CDA). In practical terms, this is intended to provide a pathway for property owners to seek retroactive tax relief approved by the Hempstead CDA, with processing handled by the Nassau County assessor.

Key Provisions (as described)

  • The Nassau County assessor would be empowered to accept applications for retroactive real property tax exemptions related to the Hempstead CDA.
  • The exemption in question is administered by the Incorporated Village of Hempstead Community Development Agency.
  • The bill does not provide the full text of eligibility criteria, retroactive timeframes, or specific procedural steps beyond authorizing the assessor to accept such applications.

Note: The exact eligibility requirements, retroactive window, documentation standards, and administrative procedures would be defined in the bill’s text or subsequent amendments, which are not provided here.

Who Is Affected

  • Property owners in Nassau County, specifically within the Incorporated Village of Hempstead, who may qualify for a real property tax exemption administered by the Hempstead CDA.
  • The Nassau County assessor’s office, which would handle the acceptance (and potentially processing) of retroactive exemption applications.
  • The Hempstead Community Development Agency, as the entity whose exemption would be the basis for the retroactive relief.

Procedural and Timeline Details

  • Introduced and referred to the Real Property Taxation committee on May 1, 2025 (two identical referrals noted in the record).
  • As a newly introduced bill, it would require committee consideration, potential amendments, and passage by both legislative houses (as applicable) before becoming law.

Potential Impact

  • Provides a formal mechanism for retroactive exemption applications, potentially delivering tax relief to eligible property owners after the fact.
  • Could affect local tax revenue timing and records, requiring coordination between the Hempstead CDA, the Nassau County assessor, and other county/local offices.
  • The measure signals legislative attention to retroactive exemption processes and CDA-related tax incentives in Nassau County.

Notes

  • Full analysis of fiscal impact, eligibility standards, and implementation details awaits the bill’s full text and any amendments adopted during the legislative process.
  • Related companion and prior-session bills suggest ongoing or prior consideration of CDA-related exemptions in this jurisdiction.
