Title 4-B of Article 4 of the New York State Real Property Tax Law allows a property owner in a city of 1,000,000 or more people to receive a property tax abatement for the installation of a green roof on a Real Property Class 1, 2 or 4 building or site.

DOB is proposing to amend Section 105-01 of its rules to clarify the process for the installation of a green roof, delete obsolete provisions, update the names of certain documents to match current practice, and make minor plain language edits.

    Is there a way for a project to apply while awaiting this rule making process hearing?

    Why is a hearing necessary if as is said above, only “minor … edits” are being made? In the past, when this law has been updated in the same way, this process was not required and there was no delay to applicants.

    I think this rule making process is unnecessarily delaying the application of these minor updates to an existing law and process.

    If this step is necessary in order to enact the legislation signed into law by Gov. Hochul in June of 2024, updating and extending the property tax abatement program intended to incentivize green roof installation in NYC, then it has my full support.
