Please be advised that an Intergovernmental Relations Committee Meeting has been scheduled for Tuesday, September 16, 2008 at 7:00 PM in City Hall, Council Chambers, 4th Floor.
The following items will be on the Agenda:
Gronowski - Resolution - requesting the Mayor direct the City Assessor to undertake a reassessment of all real property within the City of Yonkers in accordance with New York State Real Property Tax Law section 1573, and New York State Codes, Rules and Regulations section 201 to offset some of the costs of the revaluation, and upon completion of the revaluation to review the benefits of Real Property Tax Law Article 19 to further insulate the residential tax class from a shift of actual tax dollars.
A. Executive Director, Lee Kyriacou, New York State Office of Real Property Services Lower Hudson, will brief the Committee on the cost and benefits of reassessment and the resources the state has available for the City and the County.
B. Yonkers City Assessor, Mark Russell, will discuss the costs and benefits of city-wide reassessment in conjunction with the county or own its own.
Any additional items that may properly come before this Committee.
We ask the Administration to please have the City Assessor and any other officials deemed necessary attend the meeting so they can address issues relating to Reassessment.
Thank you
Chuck Lesnick
Council President, Chair
