Town of Oyster Bay Receiver of Taxes, Jeffrey P. Pravato, will host a free Property Tax Assessment Grievance Workshop for residents looking to acquire information on how to challenge their 2023-2024 property tax assessments. The workshop will be held in person on April 13, 2022 at 10:00 am at Town of Oyster Bay Town Hall (54 Audrey Ave, Oyster Bay).
“While Nassau County determines your value, we in Town government want to make sure you know that you have a right as a homeowner to challenge your assessment. Remember, your assessment can only be lowered as the result of a challenge – it can never be raised – and, if you don’t challenge your assessment, your taxes could increase to pay for a neighbor’s assessment reduction,” said Receiver of Taxes Pravato. “If you are a homeowner who disagrees with the assessed value of your property, I invite you to attend this Property Tax Assessment Workshop, as the property tax grievance deadline of May 2nd is approaching.”
In January, Nassau County notified residents of their home’s tentative assessed value for the 2023-2024 school tax period and the 2024 general tax period. Any residents who did not receive the notice may view it online at www.mynassauproperty.com or contact their County Legislator.
At the workshop, Receiver of Taxes Pravato will answer questions and show residents how to use online tools to file an “Application for Correction of Assessment” online or via mail. There is no requirement to pay a law firm or agency to file a grievance. For those unable to attend the workshop, Receiver of Taxes Pravato offers an online video at www.oysterbaytown.com/grievancevideo
