Well there is 2 numbers one is if the 5 year rule actually passes the state legislature, and the other is the increase all at once. If that supposed bill (which haven’t been written or submitted yet) you will get the entire increase in 1 shot not over 5 years
Ahh. thanks. Wasn't aware of that.
They say they did this because lots of folks grieved their taxes and the ones that didn't got stuck. So I wonder what happens now? I suppose people will continue to grieve especially after the increase. What will that mean for these increases.
Tax impact group discussion leads to the bottom line of why our taxes are so high... and arguments ensue. Gotta love the laughable defenses. Gotta love how teachers will pick on a few $400k administrators' salaries in a given district when only a small handful of their own kind add up to that and multitudes more.
A friend of mine has a daughter who is s 7th grade chorus teacher. Fresh out of college in 2008 her starting salary was $70K in a district out east. She now teaches in Nassau and makes $110K according to the most recent published stats. So I figure that if she's making that after only 10 years "in", there's no doubt she'll be making at least $150K by the time she hits her forties.
Personally I think that's crazy for a chorus teacher. For an important middle school core subject like English, math, science, okay, I could kind of see those numbers. But for just chorus? To teach kids how to sing, run the chorus group, and put on two shows with them a year? Not even band or orchestra? IMHO that kind of salary is nuts but apparently it's the norm here even though the national median salary for the same job and 5-10 years experience is about $50K.

You will still be able to grieve, but the no questions asked approval will no longer occur (IE Oyster Bay Supervisor Joe Saladino's Waterfront home in Nassau Shores being valued in the mid 400's)

Because... unions... where even the lowest common denominator is treated equally. Making hard work and hard workers irrelevant. What type of employee prefers that kind of indifference? What kind of output does that perpetrate?
It makes zero sense they can "negotiate" wages for the individual.
I just looked up my old house and the picture they are using is at least 10 years old, house has been completely re-done inside and out so this won't be an accurate reassessment....my old house isn't the only one that's changed drastically over the last decade. Once again some people will inadvertently pay more than others based on faulty information on the site.
