[Adopted 3-10-2026 by L.L. No. 2-2026]
The Board finds that it is in the best interest of the Town of North Hempstead to adopt a local law to opt into certain amendments to § 458-a of the New York Real Property Tax Law in order to provide an exemption from all property taxes imposed upon disabled veterans and their spouses, with a 100% service-connected disability.
The primary residence of a seriously disabled veteran, as those terms are defined in New York Real Property Law § 458-a, shall be exempt from Town taxation, assessments and special ad valorem levies, in accord with and subject to the requirements of New York Real Property Law § 458-a.
