Town of Oyster Bay Receiver of Taxes Jeffrey Pravato today announced two additional Property Tax Assessment Grievance Workshops will be offered for residents looking to acquire information on how to challenge their 2021-2022 property tax assessments. The deadline to challenge the assessment on your home was recently extended to Thursday, April 2nd. The free workshops will be held on:
- Tuesday, March 24th at 7pm at Town Hall, located at 54 Audrey Avenue in Oyster Bay. This seminar is offered in partnership with County Legislator Josh Lafazan and the Nassau County Assessment Review Commission.
- Wednesday, March 25th at 2pm at the Hicksville Community Center, located at 28 W. Carl Street in Hicksville. This seminar is offered in partnership with County Legislator Rose Walker and Hempstead Town Receiver of Taxes Jeanine Driscoll. The workshop is open to residents from both the towns of Hempstead and Oyster Bay.
“While Nassau County determines your value, we in Town government want to make sure you know that you have a right as homeowner to challenge your assessment. Remember, your assessment can only be lowered as the result of a challenge – it can never be raised – and this workshop helps you challenge for free,” said Receiver of Taxes Pravato. “If you are a homeowner who disagrees with the assessed value of your property, I invite you to attend one of these Property Tax Assessment Workshops, as the property tax grievance deadline of April 2nd is approaching.”
In January 2020, Nassau County notified residents of their home’s new tentative assessed value for the 2021/2022 school tax period and the 2022 general tax period. Any residents who did not receive the notice may view it online at www.mynassauproperty.com or contact their local County legislator.
At the workshops, an assessment expert 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 a workshop, Receiver of Taxes Pravato offers an online video at www.oysterbaytown.com/grievancevideo.
