Financial experts predict that there are already signs the city is headed for financial disaster, as many individuals and businesses are leaving the city for lower tax areas and city government spending is at an all-time high. The last time the city came close to filing for bankruptcy was in 1975 when former President Gerald Ford refused to give the city a bailout package to settle its debt. Read full article here https://www.breitbart.com/economy/2019/03/10/experts-nyc-could-go-bankrupt-first-time-40-years/ In 2015,Cuomo's task force came up with rules that will be imposed when ventilators run short. Patients assigned a red code will have highest access, and other patients will be assigned green, yellow or blue (the worst), depending on a “triage officer’s” decision.
In truth, a death officer. Let’s not sugar-coat it. It won’t be up to your own doctor. In 2015, the state could have purchased the additional 16,000 needed ventilators for $36,000 apiece, or a total of $576 million. It’s a lot of money, but in hindsight, spending half a percent of the budget to prepare for pandemic was the right thing to do.

Comment in our Reddit Community https://www.reddit.com/r/DivideNY/ or post in our in our MeWe group https://mewe.com/group/5ad55afefa19d110b3b1ca4d Comment/post In our Long Island Group https://www.facebook.com/groups/DivideNYSLongIsland/ or our NYC Group https://www.facebook.com/groups/DivideNYsNYC/ Anyone can use the names New Amsterdam or Montauk. Please click button below to see our plan Property values have dropped in a lot of areas in New York State. These are the steps to challenge your home property tax assessment in NY (Note there is an example near bottom) First Step Get an estimate of how much your property is worth (full market value) today. (check with an appraiser, bank, your insurance company to confirm the value in writing) Second Step Get the amount your property is currently assessed from your town or city. It should be on your tax bill. Third Step Get the Residential assessment ratio (RAR) for your town village or city go to this link http://orps1.orpts.ny.gov/cfapps/MuniPro/ Select your county; then select your town or city; then select RAR Information take the most current RAR Fourth Step Then take the Residential assessment ratio (RAR) you got from the table and multiply it by the current value of your home. This should give you the current home property tax assessment of your home plus or minus 5 percent. If amount you get is HIGHER than your current tax assessment or within 5 percent of your current tax assessment STOP HERE challenging your assessment could RAISE your taxes. However, if amount you get is LOWER than your current tax assessment you can use the fifth step below to challenge it. Fifth Step In most towns, villages and cities you must file your challenge/grievance in writing we suggest you file it a few weeks before these deadlines. Check with your assessor to confirm Grievance Day in your community Grievance Day is the deadline for submitting Form RP-524 and the day that the Board of Assessment Review (BAR) meets to hear complaints. In most communities, Grievance Day is the fourth Tuesday in May. However, there are exceptions:
Take a copy of the appraisal or other document proving the full market value of the home; and attach it to the form you prepare using this link and file your grievance https://www.tax.ny.gov/pdf/publications/orpts/grievancebooklet.pdf Nassau County and New York City use a different form which is explained in the link above. Note If your property is located in a village that assesses property, you may have to file two assessments grievances, one for the village and one for the town. To grieve both assessments, you are required to file two separate Form RP-524 with both the town and village. You will have to repeat first to fifth steps above selecting your village this time. If you miss the deadline for one you can still file for the other. Sixth Step If you are dissatisfied with the decision of on your tax assessment grievance by your municipality, you may appeal your assessment again via:
----------------------- Example -------------------- Step 1) Your home is currently worth $450,000 (check with an appraiser etc to confirm) Step 2) You are assessed at $370,000 according to your tax bill or other town records. Step 3) Say you live in the Suffolk county, Town of Brookhaven You go to this link http://orps1.orpts.ny.gov/cfapps/MuniPro/ Select your county Suffolk ; then select your town Brookhaven; then select “RAR Information” take the most current RAR from the table for the year 2019 Brookhaven has an RAR of 0.79 or 79 percent Step 4) Take RAR and multiply it by the appraised value of your home $400,000 * 0.79 = $316,000 This should give you the current home property tax assessment of your home plus or minus 5 percent if correctly assessed; 316,000/370,000 = about 0.85 or 8.5 percent, so it is NOT within 5 percent. Also amount we got $316,000 is LOWER than example home current tax assessment of $370,000 so our example is over assessed. Step 5) Then the homeowner would take copy of the appraisal or other document proving the full market value of the home; and attach it to the form you prepare and file the tax grievance via the link below which must be received before the deadline date which varies by municipality from mid-February to June every year See fifth step above for deadline details. Our example would ask for a new assessment of $316,000 https://www.tax.ny.gov/pdf/publications/orpts/grievancebooklet.pdf ------------------------------------------Extra Information----------------------------------- If the RAR for your municipality is greater than one (1) that means your whole town/city/village is over assessed at more than 100 percent full market value which is unlawful in NY. However, the only method available to force a municipality to obey the law and reduce everyone’s assessment down to full market value is a lawsuit in New York State Supreme Court. (a trial court in NY). This means the court should order all residential assessment in the municipality reduced by multiplying the each assessment by the reciprocal of the RAR (1/RAR) to return the municipality to full value assessment. More Information on RARs https://www.tax.ny.gov/research/property/equal/rar/index.htm The RAR should NOT be used for agricultural, industrial, or commercial property assessment calculations. --------------------- Please comment on our Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/newamsterdamny Comment/post in our Reddit Community https://www.reddit.com/r/DivideNY/ post in our in our MeWe group https://mewe.com/group/5ad55afefa19d110b3b1ca4d Comment/post In our Long Island Group https://www.facebook.com/groups/DivideNYSLongIsland/ or our NYC Group https://www.facebook.com/groups/DivideNYsNYC/ ------------------------------- Donations Gratefully Accepted Here are the Donation Options: Click the DONATE button below to donate via PayPal or Everbutton/Stripe If you wish to mail a check or money order; please make it payable to: Divide NYS Caucus Inc PO Box 1634 Latham NY 12110 Anyone can use the names New Amsterdam or Montauk.
