Bill Summary

AN ACT to amend the real property tax law, in relation to requiring affordable housing projects to calculate and only use the area median income for the specific zip code that the project is located in for determining affordability

AI Summary

This bill amends the real property tax law to require affordable housing projects, including those under the 421-a program, to calculate and use the area median income (AMI) for the specific zip code where the project is located when determining affordability. However, for affordable housing projects in the five counties that make up New York City, if the AMI for the specific zip code is higher than the New York City Region AMI as defined by the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), the project must use the New York City Region AMI instead.
