Veterans Real Property Tax Exemption brochure available

Oyster Bay Town Receiver of Taxes James J. Stefanich advises residents that the Town has available to local veterans an informative brochure to assist them in applying for a tax reduction program.

The Veteran's Real Property Tax Exemption applies to all veterans, male and female, who rendered active military, naval or air service to the United States during a period of war. It also applies to anyone employed by the War Shipping Administration or Office of Defense Transportation, or as a civil servant employed by the U.S. Army or Naval Transport Service, who served satisfactorily as a crew member aboard merchant vessels in ocean-going foreign or coast-wide service between December 7, 1941, and August 15, 1945.

In order to be exempt, the property in question must be owned by the veteran, his or her spouse or unremarried surviving spouse.

Any resident or organization interested in obtaining a free brochure can pick one up at Town Halls North (Oyster Bay) and South (Massapequa), the Department of Public Works (Syosset) and at major park facilities, or write to the Town of Oyster Bay Public Information Office, Town Hall East, 54 Audrey Avenue, Oyster Bay, N.Y. 11771 or call 624-6380.
