Relates to base proportions in Nassau and Suffolk counties

Bill A8568 limits annual increases in property tax base proportions for Nassau and Suffolk counties. For Nassau County, local approval is required to cap annual increases at 1% per year; Suffolk County gets a 2% cap for most years but a 1% cap specifically for the 2025-2026 tax year. If calculations would exceed these limits, local governments must adjust other tax classes to ensure total base proportions equal 100%. The law applies to tax levies based on the 2025 assessment rolls in these counties.
