BILL NUMBER:S7623 TITLE OF BILL: An act to amend the real property tax law, in relation to conservation agreement exemptions in certain towns PURPOSE OR GENERAL IDEA OF BILL: Provides for additional population bands to those used in 2009 legislation to provide state authority for conservation easement tax exemptions for the Town of Bethlehem. Certain towns were given this authority previously. SUMMARY OF SPECIFIC PROVISIONS: Section 1 adds a new section 491-b to the Real Property Tax Law, allowing for the Town of Bethlehem in Albany County to offer a conservation easement identical to those offered by certain towns in Erie County pursuant to Section 491 of the Real Property Tax Law as established by 2009 legislation. It provides for definitions, procedures, computation and penalties, identical to those currently described in section 491 for other eligible towns. JUSTIFICATION: This bill would allow the Town of Bethlehem in Albany County to provide conservation easement exemptions originally authorized for certain towns in 2009 with establishment of section 491 of the Real Property Tax Law. Bethlehem has been studying open space issues for several years, including legal methods of reflecting the benefits of conserved lands in property taxes, and would like to offer this exemption, pursuant to local law and other actions of the town board. Section 491 uses narrow population corridors to define eligible
