"ALBANY -- The state Senate wants to give local property taxpayers $6 billion in rebates and tax credits in 2007 and 2008, Majority Leader Joseph Bruno announced Wednesday.
"The number one priority of the Senate is to provide greater property-tax relief to the hardworking, overburdened taxpayers of New York State," Bruno said in a statement.
The proposal calls for refunding $2.6 billion in 2007 -- triple the amount of the approximately $875 million handed out before November's election -- and $3.4 billion in 2008. The $875 million in 2006 included $200 million for income tax credits in New York City, and those credits are included in the new plan. The rebates averaged about $175 for non-seniors and $300 for senior citizens in 2006, and they would increase to an average of $525 for non-seniors and $900 for seniors under the Senate plan." for the rest ....... click here ...........andy
