Leg Mejias Hosts Tax Savings Workshop

Nassau County Legislator Dave Mejias (D-Farmingdale) hosted his annual Tax Savings Workshop in Plainview last week. Each year Legislator Mejias invites an expert from the Nassau County Department of Assessment to teach residents how to challenge their assessment. Many residents attended the meeting at the Plainview-Old Bethpage Library, thanking the legislator for providing this service.

"It is important that every resident have the opportunity to challenge their assessment," Legislator Mejias said. "Residents should also be aware that when they challenge their assessment it can never go up, only stay the same or be lowered. In an effort to bring government to the people, I invite an expert from the Department of Assessment down to the local libraries each year to teach residents how to challenge their assessments without having to hire a lawyer."
