Almost two months after the beginning of State Fiscal Year 2026-27, the Legislature passed the last of the SFY 2026-2027 Budget Bills this week.
This year, the budget was delayed by negotiations relating to changes of the State Environmental Quality Review Act (SEQRA), the Climate Leadership and Community Protection Act (CLCPA), automobile insurance reform, funding for immigration services and the Medicaid Essential Plan, and taxes, particularly in relation to funding New York City through changes to the Pass-Through Entity Tax (PTET), a proposed NYC specific Pied-à-Terre Tax, and a proposed millionaire’s tax.
After months of negotiations on these items, the Legislature began passing budget bills last week and concluded this week. With the exception of significant additional funding for New York City, the final budget looks similar to what Governor Hochul proposed in January. It includes some of her top priorities, while holding some legislative priorities at bay. For example, the Enacted Budget includes auto insurance reforms, environmental reforms, and funding for child care initiatives, but rejected sweeping tax increases (including the PTET proposal) or significant additional spending on Medicaid (e.g., the final budget did not include funding or authority to provide health insurance coverage for the 450,000 New Yorkers losing Essential Plan coverage).
Please see the summary of items included in the final budget but note that this list is not exhaustive. A comparison chart of the Health and Mental Hygiene Article VII will be provided separately. For any questions related to these items, reach out to your BW team member by email or phone at 518.427.7350.

This was included in the Enacted budget with modifications to allow businesses to amend their 2025 returns due to the changes and to ensure there are no penalties imposed for retroactive changes.
Decouple NYC from Certain H.R.1 Provisions (Revenue Part G): The Governor proposed preserving the City’s current treatment of depreciation for qualified production property, business interest expenses, expensing of depreciable business assets, and decoupling NYC from certain changes to deductions for domestic R&E expenditures. This was included in the Enacted Budget with modifications to allow businesses to amend their 2025 returns due to the changes and to ensure there are no penalties imposed for retroactive changes.

VLT Vendor Fees (Revenue Part II): The Governor proposed providing temporary financial relief to certain Video Lottery Terminal (VLT) facilities by allowing them to retain a larger share of gaming revenue after prizes if they apply for an increased vendor fee through the Gaming Commission. MGM Empire City would receive an additional 6.5% vendor fee and tax-rate parity protections if a nearby New York City commercial casino operates at an effective tax rate below 44%, while other eligible tracks could apply for a 5% increase. The proposal conditions this relief on maintaining 2025 gaming employment levels, giving the Gaming Commission discretion to reduce the additional fee if staffing drops below established benchmarks. Included in the Enacted Budget.
Pied-A-Terre Surcharge (Revenue Part HH): The final budget included a pied-a-terre tax, beginning June 1, 2026, that applies to Class 1 homes worth $5 million or more and, during an initial phase through June 30, 2028, to Class 2 condos and co-ops based on imputed rental values starting at $1 million, before shifting to a $5 million sales-value threshold in 2028. Surcharge rates would range from 0.8% to 1.3% for Class 1 properties and from 4% to 6.5% proportionally higher rates for condos and co-ops during Phase 1 to account for valuation differences, with all covered properties moving to the lower Class 1 rate structure of 0.8% to 1.3% in Phase 2.
Properties would be exempt if they are primary residences for owners, qualifying family members, or bona fide tenants with one-year leases, though vacant units and certain entity-owned properties without a majority resident owner could still be taxed.
The proposal also establishes grievance and enforcement procedures, including penalties for fraudulent filings or attempts to evade the tax through subdivision of units, and authorizes information sharing between the City and State to verify ownership and residency.
