9. Revaluation relief abatements for eligible properties in the revaluation year shall continue to be provided in the first, second and third tax year next following the revaluation year.

For the first, second and third year following the revaluation year, the director shall calculate, forthwith each year upon the receipt of a certified copy of a resolution from the municipality, the amount of the revaluation relief abatement for each eligible property.

For the purposes of this section:

“RRA” equals the revaluation relief abatement for the eligible property;

“A” equals the tax liability produced by multiplying the constant rate factor for the municipality for the revaluation year by the net assessed value of the eligible property as it appeared on the assessor‘s duplicate for the revaluation year; and

“B” equals the tax liability produced by multiplying the general tax rate for the municipality for the base year by the net assessed value of the eligible property as it appeared on the assessor’s duplicate for the base year.

For the first tax year next following the revaluation year, the director shall determine the amount of the revaluation relief abatement as follows:

RRA=0.60 (A-B)

For the second tax year next following the revaluation year, the director shall determine the amount of the revaluation relief abatement for each eligible property as follows:

RRA= 0.40 (A-B)

For the third year next following the revaluation year, the director shall determine the amount of the revaluation relief abatement for each eligible property as follows:

RRA= 0.20 (A-B)

For the fourth year next following the revaluation year, there shall be no revaluation relief abatement given, and all properties shall be assessed and taxed at their taxable value.

In each of those tax years the director shall certify to the county board of taxation the aggregate amount of revaluation relief abatements to be provided for eligible properties within the municipality, and shall provide the county board of taxation with a certified list of eligible properties within the municipality and the amount of the revaluation relief abatement to which each is entitled. The county board of taxation shall incorporate the information provided on that list into the tax duplicate prepared for the taxing district pursuant to R.S.54:4-55.
