Extends limitations on the shift between classes of taxable property in the town of Clarkstown, county of Rockland

Clarkstown extends limits on property-tax shifts

Effective immediately, the law extends Clarkstown’s property-tax shift cap through 2025–2026, covering fiscal years 2017–2018 through 2025–2026. It applies only in approved assessing units in Clarkstown, Rockland County, with a local law, ordinance, or resolution authorizing it. Each property class’s tax share cannot rise more than 1% above the previous year’s adjusted base proportion or adjusted proportion, whichever applies. Local lawmakers must adjust the class shares so they total 100%. This limits how taxes shift between property classes; it does not change the total tax levy or guarantee lower individual bills.
