LAVALLE -- read twice and ordered print- ed, and when printed to be committed to the Committee on Local Govern- ment IN ASSEMBLY -- Introduced by M. of A. THIELE -- read once and referred to the Committee on Libraries and Education Technology AN ACT making certain findings and determinations with respect to certain payments to the Hampton Bays Public Library from the Town of Southampton, county of Suffolk, from its community preservation fund in relation to the limit upon real property tax levies by local governments THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND ASSEM- BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS: Section 1. Legislative findings. The Hampton Bays public library is a free association library organized pursuant to the laws of the state of New York. Revenues for the library are raised by a property tax levied upon the residents of the Hampton Bays union free school district. As such the Hampton Bays public library is considered a local government pursuant to section 3-c of the general municipal law, limiting real property tax levies by local governments. Further, pursuant to section 2 of chapter 330 of the laws of 2011, the Hampton Bays public library is also eligible for payments from the town of Southampton, county of Suffolk, from its community preservation fund. Such payments are made to mitigate the impact of lost property tax revenues from lands wholly exempt from taxation as a result of their acquisition by the federal, state or local government for the preservation of community character as defined in subdivision 4 of section 64-e of the town law. Such payments are considered to be payments in lieu of taxes pursuant to section 3-c of the general municipal law. Such payments in lieu of taxes are a factor in the calculation of the tax levy limit pursuant to said law. In 2014, the Hampton Bays public library was entitled to a payment from the town of Southampton pursuant to section 2 of chapter 330 of the laws of 2011 in the amount of $36,281. However, due to an administrative error, said payment was not made in 2014.
