Section 1573 of the Real Property Tax Law was amended by Chapter 56 of the Laws of 2010 to provide a new assistance program to local governments to encourage reassessments. Participation in the assistance program is purely voluntary; no local government is required to conduct a reassessment or to apply for the assistance. The rule is the administrative structure to implement the statutorily authorized assistance program.
