TOWN OF COLLINS 2022 FINAL ASSESSMENT ROLL

Collins 2022 Final Roll


IMPORTANT NOTICE
On December 26, 2021 the NYS Governor Kathy Hochul issued Executive Order 11.1 which waives the requirement of Senior Citizens with Limited Incomes (RP-467-Rnw) and Disability with Low Incomes (RP-459c-rnw) to have to renew their application with the Assessor’s office for the 2022/23 tax year.  On January 3, 2022 the Town of Collins acted on the Executive Order allowing our residents to remain safely in their homes, and not have to re-apply for their exemption.
WHAT DOES THIS MEAN TO YOU? 
YOU NEED NOT DO ANYTHING
.  We have the income you submitted last is on file.  This Executive Order enables us to continue your exemption on next year’s assessment roll by using last year’s application.  There is no need to risk in-person visits to our office during the COVID pandemic.  You can remain safely in your home while still enjoying the tax benefits you received this past year.


NYS Low Income Household Water Assistance Program
