S1756-2011 Memo
BILL NUMBER:S1756 TITLE OF BILL: An act in relation to permitting the county of Suffolk to refund penalties and interest associated with the non-payment of real property taxes in certain cases for the 2008-2009 tax year where a town failed to send out a customary payment-due notice regarding the second-half payment of real property taxes PURPOSE OR GENERAL IDEA OF BILL: Permits Suffolk County to refund penalties and interest associated with non-payment of real property taxes where customary payment-due notice was not provided. SUMMARY OF SPECIFIC PROVISIONS: Section 1 provides notwithstanding provisions permitting Suffolk County to refund penalties and interest associated with certain non-payment of real property taxes; Section 2 provides effect date. JUSTIFICATION: This bill would allow the Suffolk County Legislature to direct, via legislative resolution, the Suffolk County Treasurer to refund penalties and interest to certain property owners where the non-payment was due to the following: * The reason for non-payment was due to the failure of a town to provide written notification that the second-half payment of taxes was due; * The town had customarily provided such notice; * The town failed to mail such notices for the 2008-09 tax year; and * The taxpayer had subsequently paid the taxes in full, including interest and penalty by December 31, 2009. Many taxpayers have come to rely on the customary notification mailer as a reminder their taxes are due, although this proceed is not required by law. Some towns, in an effort to cut costs, have eliminated these mailings. As a result, many taxpayers, already burdened by skyrocketing bills, were late paying their second-half bills. PRIOR LEGISLATIVE HISTORY: 2009-10: A.9129/S.6347 - Remained in Committee FISCAL IMPLICATIONS: None to state. EFFECTIVE DATE: This act shall take effect immediately.
