[Adopted 1-13-1997 by L.L. No. 1-1997 (Ch. 125 of the 1987 Code)]
Local Law No. 1-1994 is rescinded and reenacted, changed and amended as follows.
The Economic Development Zone, as heretofore authorized by Local Law No. 1, 1987, exempting certain real property from taxation and special ad valorem levies in parts of the First Ward of the City of Lackawanna, shall expire, as such, on July 31, 2004. However, the particular exemptions granted thereunder may extend beyond July 31, 2004, based on the effective date of the original grant and its terms and conditions. The real property tax abatement for improvements to property shall be for a ten-year period from the date that the business is considered zone-certified by the State of New York.
