Establishes limits upon local government tax levies

Summary

The measure amends the General Municipal Law to clarify which entities count as “local government” and what charges count as “taxes.” It adds a provision that allows a levy for local government employer contributions to the state teachers’ retirement system when the contribution rate jumps more than two points, and it specifically includes ad valorem levies and special assessments authorized under section 980‑J. The changes take effect immediately.
