Senator Weik,
RE: bill 2023/S5250A
The proposed bill authorizing Good Samaritan Hospital Medical Center to apply for exemption from property taxes on 1111 Montauk Highway will impose an additional financial burden on your constituents in West Islip if passed. The Hospital already has a tax exempt status on a number of properties it owns in West Islip however this case would extend that privilege to office condominium space in a building occupied by other medical practices. We believe this will unfairly add another burden to West Islip taxpayers who must pay for the shortfall in taxes created by these exemptions. There is no need for additional legislation creating another catagory of tax exempt status and there is no benefit to residents. in fact, it will harm residents, especially if it grants retroactive exemption requiring the refund of taxes already paid and distributed to schools and agencies as required. There is a point where this becomes corporate greed which is clearly harmfull to the people you represent. Please withdraw your support of this bill. John Davis, President Willetts Point Association

Good Samaritan Hospital owns many properties in West Islip causing an unnecessary burden on residents. There does not need to be special legislation extended to this already Tax Exempt facility. The bldg in question seems to be a condo/office facility which in the past was taxed as such. Removing condos by special legislation to tax exempt status will have a negative impact on your constituents, who are the very ones you represent. Please reconsider your support of this bill. Thank you. Lynn Luttenberger
