Plandome Manor sets hearing on tax cap breach law

Bill San Antonio

Plandome Manor trustees on Thursday set a March 17 public hearing on a local law that would give the board the ability to override the state-mandated tax cap in formulating its 2015-16 budget.

The law is voted on annually and offsets potential fines that could arise if a municipality deems it necessary to exceed the tax cap.

In the last few months, neighboring Manhasset villages Munsey Park and Plandome have also approved the law.
