No. 2046-A Capital commitment plans and capital project detail data reports. Introduction This local law would clarify and codify the existing requirement and practice of the mayor issuing capital commitment plans and capital project detail reports. The current language of the Charter does not clearly delineate the requirements and timelines of the two distinct reports that are produced. This local law would require that capital commitment plans be issued three times a year (within 90 days of the adopted budget and with submission of the preliminary and executive budgets). The capital commitment plans must include for the relevant fiscal years appropriations and planned commitments by project type; planned commitments by agency; for each capital project, as applicable, a description of such project, the schedule of planned commitments, available appropriations, expenditures and the current milestone associated with such project; and commitments by project type and total expenditures for the prior four fiscal years. The capital project detail reports, which are periodic reports on the progress of capital projects, would also be issued three times a year (within 120 days of the adopted budget and within 30 days of the submission of the preliminary and executive budgets).

Introduction This local law would change the date by which the City Council must submit recommendations in regard to the Preliminary Budget from March 25 to April 1. P-C Item Approved by Comm Pass Action details Not available Int 2231-2021 * Daniel Dromm   Preconsidered Extending to the 2021-22 assessment roll the renewal of certain residential property taxation exemptions received on the 2020-21 assessment roll for persons 65 years of age or over and persons with disabilities, and to provide for the repeal thereof. Introduction In December 2020, the State enacted a law that automatically renewed all properties that had received a senior citizens homeowner property tax exemption or a persons with disabilities homeowner property tax exemption (collectively “SCHE and DHE”) in the 2020-2021 tax year for the 2021-2022 tax year without the need to submit the otherwise required renewal application. Pursuant to that law, this local law would allow the Department of Finance (“DOF”) to require renewal applications where there is reason to believe the property is no longer eligible to receive the exemption because the property owner: 1) changed their primary residence, (2) added another owner to the deed of the property for which such exemption was granted, (3) transferred such property to a new owner, or (4) died, and require DOF to notify the applicable property owners of this requirement.
