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 county that the project is located in for determining affordability

AI Summary

This bill amends the Real Property Tax Law to require that affordable housing projects, including 421-a projects, calculate and use only the Area Median Income (AMI) for the specific county where the project is located in determining affordability. This change ensures that the affordability of these projects is based on the income levels in the county where the project is situated, rather than a broader regional or statewide AMI, which could result in a higher threshold for affordability.
