Recommendations for 2019 NYC General Election Ballot

This means that the tax rate will not go up for New York City property tax but it's still the assessments will go up at 6% or 8% pending on your tax class.  ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: NY State Senate Bill Alerts < bill-alerts-do-not-reply@nysenate.gov > Date: Fri, Oct 25, 2019, 4:40 PM Subject: A8138 has been signed by Governor Andrew M.
