Relates to the alternative veterans property tax exemption

This bill expands New York's property tax exemption for veterans to include active-duty military members. It defines "active military service" to cover full-time duty in all U.S. military branches (Army, Navy, Air Force, Coast Guard), allowing currently serving personnel to qualify. Local governments must adopt separate resolutions after public hearings to extend the exemption to these active-duty members, distinct from existing veteran exemptions. The changes apply to property tax assessments starting January 1 after the bill takes effect.
