SubscribeFor the third year in a row, Nassau County Executive Edward P. Mangano’s No-Property Tax Increase Budget was passed by the County Legislature. The budget restricts spending for a second consecutive year while continuing to deliver essential services for residents. Aggressive fiscal management and a continued commitment to spending cuts is evident as County Executive Mangano and the Republican Legislative Caucus have cut over $290 million in spending from Nassau’s budget since 2009.

Mangano’s Historic Assessment Reforms Save Millions for Residents
Nassau County has the only dysfunctional assessment system of its kind in the United States of America. Governed by a unique New York State law and protected by prior politician’s lack of will to tackle the dysfunction, the assessment system has generated $1.6 billion in debt and a $100 million in errors annually for the last decade. Nassau County Executive Edward P. Mangano, with the support of the Republican Majority Caucus in the Legislature, today ends the accumulation of residential tax assessment debt to save taxpayers $30 million. For the first time in the history of Nassau County, every residential challenge has been corrected prior to finalizing the assessment roll thanks to reforms implemented by County Executive Mangano.
