        AN  ACT  to  amend  the  economic  development  law  and the tax law, in
          relation to creating a tax credit  for  manufacturing  companies  that
          have  one  established  place  of business in the state and relocate a
          minimum of fifty employees from outside the state into the state
          The People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and  Assem-
        bly, do enact as follows:
     1    Section  1.  The  economic  development law is amended by adding a new
     2  section 107 to read as follows:
     3    § 107. Encourage manufacturing jobs. 1. The commissioner shall promote
     4  the location and development of new businesses in the state by encourag-
     5  ing manufacturing companies that already have at least  one  established
     6  place  of  business in the state and bring at least fifty employees from
     7  an out of state location to the state  for  the  purposes  of  expanding
     8  their manufacturing company.
     9    2.  The  commissioner shall determine what companies qualify for a tax
    10  credit pursuant to section one hundred eighty-seven-t of  the  tax  law,
    11  but  only manufacturing companies that bring long term jobs to the state
    12  shall be eligible for such credit, provided that:
    13    (a) the commissioner shall have the  power  to  define  and  determine
    14  which jobs are "long term"; and
    15    (b) notwithstanding paragraph (a) of this subdivision, a manufacturing
    16  company  that  loses  its  contract, closes a facility or suffers from a
    17  catastrophic event as determined by the commissioner shall not be deemed
    18  ineligible for such credit.
    19    § 2. The tax law is amended by adding a new section 187-t to  read  as
    20  follows:
    21    §  187-t.  Manufacturing jobs incentive credit. 1. General. A taxpayer
    22  shall be allowed a one time credit, to be  credited  against  the  taxes
    23  imposed  under  sections  one  hundred eighty-three, one hundred eighty-
         EXPLANATION--Matter in italics (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
                              [ ] is old law to be omitted.
                                                                   LBD09668-01-7
        A. 5605                             2
     1  four, and one hundred eighty-five of this article. Such  credit,  to  be
     2  computed  as  hereinafter provided, shall be allowed for qualified manu-
     3  facturing companies pursuant to section one hundred seven of the econom-
     4  ic  development  law.  Provided, however, that the amount of such credit
     5  allowable against the tax imposed by section one hundred eighty-four  of
     6  this  article  shall be the excess of the credit allowed by this section
     7  over the amount of such credit allowable  against  the  tax  imposed  by
     8  section one hundred eighty-three of this article.
     9    2. Amount of credit. The amount of the credit under this section shall
    10  be  2.5 percent of the average salaries of the newly created manufactur-
    11  ing jobs multiplied by the number of new jobs brought into the state  by
    12  such companies.
    13    3.  Carryover.  In  no  event  shall  the credit under this section be
    14  allowed in an amount which will reduce the tax payable to less than  the
    15  applicable  minimum tax fixed by section one hundred eighty-three or one
    16  hundred eighty-five of this article. If, however, the amount  of  credit
    17  allowable  under  this  section  for any taxable year reduces the tax to
    18  such amount, any amount of credit not deductible in  such  taxable  year
    19  may  be  carried over to the following year or years and may be deducted
    20  from the taxpayer's tax for such year or years.
    21    § 3. This act shall take effect immediately and shall apply to taxable
    22  years beginning on or after the first of  January  next  succeeding  the
    23  date on which it shall have become a law; provided, however, that effec-
    24  tive  immediately,  the addition, amendment and/or repeal of any rule or
    25  regulation necessary for the implementation of this act on its effective
    26  date are authorized and directed to be made and completed on  or  before
    27  such effective date.
