 Introduced by M. of A. STIRPE -- read once and referred to the Committee

 AN ACT in relation to requiring the commissioner of taxation and finance
 to study the frequency of residents who are being assessed library
 taxes for more than one library and to make recommendations to prevent
 the double taxation of residents; and providing for the repeal of such
 provisions upon expiration thereof

 The People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and Assem-
 bly, do enact as follows:

 1 Section 1. The commissioner of taxation and finance, in consultation
 2 with the commissioner of education, public libraries, public library
 3 systems, association libraries, and with the state librarian of the
 4 division of library development, shall study the frequency of residents
 5 who are being assessed library taxes for more than one public library or
 6 association library, provided that such study shall exclude any public
 7 library or association library that is wholly contained within another
 8 public library or association library district, and shall make recommen-
 9 dations to address the double taxation of residents. Such study shall
 10 include, but not be limited to, the following:
 11 (a) the estimated number of residents who are being assessed library
 12 taxes for more than one public library or association library and the
 13 amount of money such residents are paying in library taxes to each
 14 public library and association library;
 15 (b) the estimated economic impact on public libraries and association
 16 libraries that would result from prohibiting residents from being
 17 assessed library taxes for more than one public library or association
 18 library; and
 19 (c) minimizing the economic impact on public libraries and association
 20 libraries of reduced revenue resulting from the prohibition of residents
 21 from being assessed library taxes for more than one public library or
 22 association library.
