The assessment roll published today is tentative and does not reflect adjustments by the New York City Tax Commission. Assessments for Class Two, Three, and Four properties remain open to challenge at the independent Tax Commission until March 1, 2001. Finance Commissioner Andrew S. Eristoff encouraged taxpayers to take full advantage of the Department's customer services designed to help property owners understand the assessment process, how to appeal or correct tentative assessments, and how to qualify for exemptions and abatements. The deadline to file is Wednesday, March 15, 2001. If you are a veteran, you may be eligible for an exemption based on your dates of service and war record.
