Confirmation by commissioner of the locally stated level of assessment

§ 1211. Confirmation by commissioner of the locally stated level of assessment. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this title, before the commissioner determines a tentative equalization rate for a city, town or village, he or she shall examine the accuracy of the locally stated level of assessment appearing on the tentative assessment roll. If the commissioner confirms the locally stated level of assessment, then as soon thereafter as is practicable, he or she shall establish and certify such locally stated level of assessment as the final equalization rate for such city, town or village in the manner provided by sections twelve hundred ten and twelve hundred twelve of this title. The provisions of sections twelve hundred four, twelve hundred six and twelve hundred eight of this title shall not apply in such cases, unless the commissioner finds that the final assessment roll differs from the tentative assessment roll to an extent that renders the locally stated level of assessment inaccurate, and rescinds the final equalization rate on that basis.
