The Final Assessment Roll for the 2024/2025 tax year will be published by April 1st. Any property owner that filed a complaint on their tentative assessment but did not get the relief they sought from the Board of Assessment Review can then file a petition with the Nassau County Clerk’s Office for a Small Claims Assessment Review (SCAR).  By law the complainant must provide the Village two copies of the petition. Petitions must be filed within 30 days of the publishing of the Final Roll. Petitions filed by commercial properties are known as Certiorari Appeals or Article 7 and are heard in Supreme Court. See link on left side of page for forms.

Where Do My Taxes Go?

 We all pay a lot of money in property taxes but is important to recognize that only 12.5% of a residents total property taxes go to the Village of Sea Cliff, as illustrated below.

 If you own a median-priced home in Sea Cliff ($929,000 based upon actual sales between 06/01/2020 - 05/31/2022), you pay $3,075 per year in Village taxes. These tax dollars are used to ensure that a myriad of vital and quality of life services are provided including but not limited to ensuring that:

• Your garbage and recycling are collected, streets are plowed, paved, patched, swept, striped, & signed, curbs and catch basins are maintained.
• Municipal buildings, property and equipment are regularly maintained and kept in good repair. This includes Village Hall, two libraries, the firehouse, and the DPW facility.
• Your seventeen Village Parks and the Village Beach are maintained.
• Your remarkable volunteer fire & EMS department is sheltered, equipped, supported and maintained with a variety of trucks and gear, in order to respond effectively and safely to emergencies.
• Your Building Department, Code Enforcement and Public Safety are working to ensure that the quaint community in which you live is kept safe.
