(Long Island, NY) Senator Michael Venditto and Assemblyman Todd Kaminsky announced today that legislation they sponsored to grant tax relief to superstorm Sandy victims passed the Assembly and Senate and will soon head to Governor Cuomo’s desk (A.7156 – S.5800). The legislation slows the rate at which property taxes are increasing as a result of a homeowner making a physical change to their Sandy-damaged home. It would potentially impact all taxing entities in Nassau County except the City of Long Beach, which according to the City, already has mechanisms in place to address this issue.
“I am proud to have been the Senate sponsor of this legislation that will assist our superstorm Sandy victims and allow them to afford to repair and rebuild,” said Senator Venditto.
