STAR Exemption Update

*** STAR UPDATE ***

Homeowners will no longer be required to submit an application to the assessor if they had an ownership change or if they aged into the Enhanced STAR exemption. This does NOT apply to the Low Income Senior Citizen Exemption RP467.

Property owners will report it to the NYS Tax Department using the Homeowner Benefit Portal at www.tax.ny.gov.

If internet access is not available you may contact NYS at (518) 457-2036

New York State will notify local assessors of Basic STAR recipients who become eligible for Enhanced STAR (rather than requiring seniors to apply to their assessors).

Shred Day

Join us on Saturday, June 14th from 9 AM to 12 PM at Town Hall for the Cornwall Chamber of Commerce’s Annual Going Green Recycle Day!

This is your chance to safely and responsibly dispose of unwanted items — and help protect our environment while you’re at it. We’ll be accepting:

Old electronics
Documents for shredding
Unused or expired medications
Eyeglasses
Clothing and textiles

Just pull up with your items — our dedicated volunteers will be on hand to unload everything for you!

New this year: The Cornwall Lions Club will also be collecting used crayons to be recycled into new ones — a fun and creative way to reduce waste!

Let’s come together to make a difference.
See you at Town Hall on June 14th!
