Last pre-reassessment school tax bills to go out in Nassau

Nassau school property tax bills should start going out next week. But, remember, the bills are based on pre-reassessment values.

The new property values generated from Nassau's countywide reassessment will not be used until Oct. 2020.

So if you think your your tax bill is too high, it isn't because of reassessment. Not yet. If you're expecting lower bills because of reassessment, you won't see any reduction this year unless you successfully grieved last year.

Basically, property tax bills are calculated by multiplying the assessed value by the tax rate. If tax rates go up, bills go up even if assessments stay the same.


This year's school bills likely will go out on time, at least in the town of Oyster Bay.

Tax Receiver James Stefanich said Friday the county assessment office had already sent over a preliminary tax roll and he found no glitches. "Everything adds up nicely," Stefanich said. "We're getting everything ready to start printing bills next week."

Town residents should be able to view their tax bills on the Oyster Bay Town website as soon as the printing begins, he added.

The CSEA, which include most non-law enforcement county employees, has been working without a contract since the end of 2017. As of June, there were 3,359 fulltime CSEA members. An announcement went out late today but it didn't say much: A spokesman for Republican County Executive Bruce Blakeman did not respond to an email today asking when the CSEA deal would be announced. Everyone is looking at the CSEA because exempt employees -- county workers who are hired and fired at will -- traditionally are given the same benefits as the union members. But the exempts are not happy with some of the rumors about the agreement: one is that the CSEA will take a lesser health insurance plan in return for an upfront payment, perhaps of $1,500, for each member....
