Dear Editor,<\/p>\n
In one of the local newspapers there was an article, dated Dec. 23, 2015, concerning NYS Tax rebate checks being issued starting Nov. 24 and everyone should have their rebate checks, if eligible, by the end of December.\u00a0These are property tax rebate checks due to the \u2018Three year property tax freeze\u2019 program.<\/p>\n
Property tax owners get a refund IF<\/b> local municipalities stay under the 2 percent tax cap and not override it.<\/p>\n
In another local newspaper there was an article where the Town of Owego Supervisor wants to discuss overriding the Property Tax cap AGAIN for 2016.<\/p>\n
My question is this, has anyone received 2015 property tax refund checks yet?\u00a0Yet the Town Supervisor wants to talk about overriding the 2 percent tax cap, AGAIN?<\/p>\n
Wouldn\u2019t it be nice if Town of Owego property owners could get a rebate check?\u00a0Maybe it\u2019s time for someone on the outside to look at the situation.<\/p>\n
All of the \u2018For Sale\u2019 signs around the area are blending in and becoming \u201cpart of the scenery\u201d for the Board.\u00a0Check your Property tax bills that you\u2019re receiving. How much did they go up?\u00a0Mine went up 3.5 percent.<\/p>\n
Sincerely,<\/p>\n
