§ 288-10. Application requirements.

A. 

Application shall be made to the Assessor by the owner or owners of the real property upon forms prescribed and made available by the State Board, providing such information as the State Board may require.

B. 

With the application there shall be filed a certified statement from a physician, licensed to practice in New York State, upon forms prescribed and made available by the State Board, which states that the resident owner or the resident member of the owner's household has a permanent physical impairment which substantially limits one or more of such person's major life activities. An individual who has obtained a certificate from the State Commission for the Blind and Visually Handicapped stating that such person is legally blind may submit such certificate in lieu of a physician's certified statement.
