Pravato to Host Free Property Tax Assessment Grievance Workshops

Oyster Bay Town Receiver of Taxes Jeffrey Pravato will host four free Property Tax Assessment Grievance Workshops for residents looking to acquire information on how to challenge their 2025-2026 property tax assessments. The workshops will be held both in the morning and evening to help accommodate all residents.

“While Nassau County determines your assessed 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 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 a Property Tax Assessment Workshop, as the property tax grievance deadline of March 1^st is approaching.”

The Property Tax Grievance Workshops are scheduled as follows:

Monday, January 29^th, 10 a.m. at the Hicksville Community Center, 28 W Carl St
Tuesday, January 30^th, 7 p.m. at the Hicksville Community Center, 28 W Carl St
Tuesday, February 6^th, 7 p.m. at Oyster Bay Town Hall, 54 Audrey Ave, Oyster Bay
Thursday, February 15^th, 10 a.m. at Oyster Bay Town Hall, 54 Audrey Avenue, Oyster Bay

In January, Nassau County notified residents of their home’s tentative assessed value for the 2025-2026 School Tax period and the 2026 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 Property Tax 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.
