[Adopted 1-16-2001 by L.L. No. 1-2001]
A.
This Legislature finds and determines that the sacrifices
made by Gold Star Parents should be acknowledged by entitling them
the same alternative veterans real property tax exemptions accorded
to veterans, spouses of veterans and unremarried surviving spouses
of veterans, up to a maximum of 25%. By Chapter 326 of the Laws of
New York for 2000, the New York State Legislature amended § 458-a
of the Real Property Tax Law by adding a new Subdivision 7 authorizing
the adoption of a local law to grant alternative veterans real property
tax exemptions to Gold Star Parents.
B.
The purpose of this article is to amend the Local
Laws of the Town of Guilderland to entitle Gold Star Parents to the
alternative veterans real property tax exemptions as authorized by
Chapter 326 of the Laws of 2000.
For purposes of extending alternative veterans
real property tax exemptions to Gold Star Parents as authorized by
Chapter 326 of the Laws of New York for 2000, in § 458-a
of the Real Property Tax Law, a "Gold Star Parent" shall be defined
as "the parent of a child who died in the line of duty while serving
in the United States armed forces during a period of war." A Gold
Star Parent shall be deemed eligible for the exemption for "qualifying
residential real property" under the local laws of the Town of Guilderland.
This article shall take effect January 1, 2001,
and shall apply to assessment rolls prepared on the basis of a taxable
status date occurring on or after such date.
