This bill limits annual changes to property tax class rates in Haverstraw, New York, for 2026-2027. It prohibits any single property tax class from increasing its tax base proportion by more than 1% compared to the previous year's adjusted rate. The town must first pass a local law approving this limit, and if calculations would exceed the 1% threshold, the town's governing body must adjust class proportions to maintain a total of 100%. This directly affects Haverstraw property owners whose tax classifications might otherwise shift significantly year-to-year.

The tax applies to all conveyances regardless of where negotiations occur, but does not affect transactions finalized before September 1, 1984.
