[Adopted 9-6-2016 by L.L.
No. 20-2016]
A.Â
Under Section 283.141 of the Law of Westchester County, the taxable
status date for towns in Westchester County is June 1 of each year.
By Local Law No. 3 of 2008, the County of Westchester amended Section
283.141 to allow a town to elect May 1 of each year to be its taxable
status date.
B.Â
The Town Board finds that it is in the best interest to use a taxable
status date of May 1 because it will alleviate the timing difficulties
with respect to accepting and processing exemption applications, finalizing
other work related to valuation of real property, and meeting the
annual deadline for publishing the tentative assessment roll.
The taxable status date in the Town of Yorktown shall be May
1 of each year.
