The Facts: The Town Supervisor does not “increase” or “decrease” assessments! New York State law requires assessments at market value each year. Ozzy should understand how the process works before making promises he cannot keep.

Fishkill Supervisor Bob LaColla points out that Town of Fishkill assessments since 2011 have risen 3%. And while assessments have stayed low, LaColla made sure improvements to town services and infrastructure still happened. That water and sewer improvements took place – which improved your home’s value – and that town parks were renovated and safety improved. All said, the quality of life in Fishkill has improved!
