10/23/22 – Ordinance 22-7 (Bill 41) is effective: 

• It requires NUCs to comply with specific rules. FOK has prepared this easy-to-use checklist to assist in compliance:
• Following the current 2-year certificate renewal for the period 9/22 – 9/24, NUCs will switch to annual certificate renewal at $500/year (Beginning in 9/24). 
• Many NUCs are also legal as TVUs. It is recommended that Owners continue to renew their NUC certifications for the following distinct benefits:
  • NUCs will continue to “run with the land” whereas new owners of other legal TVUs must re-register.
  • NUCs have less requirements per Ord 22-7 and do not have to register as a TVU

9/23/22 – Bill 4 Property Tax Classification

Currently, NUCs are classified with their underlying zoning.   Bill 4 will group NUCs in with TVUs.  Bill 4 includes a separate TVU category with two tiers.   The Bill is currently on hold with the Budget Committee awaiting budget balancing.  We expect it to be voted on before year-end.  Please see more information under the Bill Status page.  FOK is fighting for fair tax treatment for TVUs and NUCs.
