LOCAL LAW NO. 2021
A Local Law entitled, “A Local Law in relation to an Amendment to Chapter 245, Taxation,
in connection with Assessment and Tax Relief Related to the COVID-19 Impact”.
BE IT ENACTED by the Town Board of the Town of Southold as follows:
I. Purpose.
The purpose of this local law is to incorporate the recant actions of the New York State
Legislature, as well as dealing with impacts to the public’s health, safety and welfare.
II. Chapter 245 of the Code of the Town of Southold is hereby amended to include the
underlined words as follows:
Article X Assessment and Tax Relief Related to the COVID-19 Impact
§ 245-25 Implementation and adoption of provisions of the COVID-19 Emergency Eviction
Southold Town Meeting Agenda - January 5, 2021
Page 22
and Foreclosure Prevention Act of 2020.
This article adopts and implements provisions of the COVID-19 Emergency Eviction and
Foreclosure Prevention Act of 2020, as enacted by the New York State Legislature, Section 1 of
Chapter 127 of the 2020 Laws of the State of New York, authorizing every governing body of
an assessing unit and local assessor to extend to the 2021 assessment roll, the renewal of the
exemptions received on the 2020 assessment roll; and to provide for the expiration of such
provisions upon the expiration thereof.
§ 245-26. 2020 Property Tax Exemptions Extended.
Notwithstanding any other provision of law, in the interest of the health and safety of the
public due to the novel coronavirus, COVID-19 pandemic, the Town of Southold Assessor shall
extend to the 2021 assessment roll, the renewal of the exemptions received on the 2020
assessment roll pursuant to sections 467 and 459-c of the real property tax law, relating to
persons age sixty-five and older and for certain persons with disabilities and limited income, and
no renewal application shall be required of any eligible recipient who received either exemption
on the 2020 assessment roll in order for such eligible recipient to continue receiving such
exemption at the same amount received on the 2020 assessment roll, except as herein provided.
Provided however, that the Town of Southold Assessor shall make available renewal
applications through postal mail or electronic means in order for eligible recipients to file
renewal applications in the event that such eligible recipient determines his or her income has
changed in a manner that would grant him or her a greater exemption than what was present on
the 2020 assessment roll.
§245-27. Exceptions to 2020 Property Tax Exemption Extensions.
In the event that the Town of Southold Assessor has reason to believe that an owner who
qualified for the exemption on the 2020 assessment roll may have since changed his or her
primary residence, added another owner to the deed, transferred the property to a new owner or
died, the Town of Southold Assessor will notify the owner and require a renewal application to
be filed. Eligible recipients are not required to appear in person to file a renewal application for
any reason and may do so by mail.

If any clause, sentence, paragraph, subdivision, section, item, subpart or part of this act shall be
adjudged by any court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, such judgment shall not affect,
impair, or invalidate the remainder thereof, but shall be confined in its operation to the clause,
sentence, paragraph, subdivision, section, item, subpart or part thereof directly involved in the
controversy in which such judgment shall have been rendered. It is hereby declared to be the
intent of the Town Board of the Town of Southold that this act would have been enacted even if
such invalid provisions had not been included herein.
