One of the most pressing issues facing all New Yorkers is increasing property taxes. For many, it is the defining factor that contributes to their exodus from our City and State. Now more than ever we need to enact a common sense plan that takes an aggressive stance and puts an end to out of control property tax increases.
Recently, I introduced bipartisan legislation in the New York State Senate that will provide property tax relief to overburdened New York City residents. The bill places a cap on the growth of your property tax bill at two percent, or the Consumer Price Index (CPI) whichever is less on a year-to-year basis.
