Thank you Senator Skelos

Here's some news that the ARCC was pleased to hear: "JOHNSTOWN, N.Y. - The State Senate will adopt Gov. David A. Paterson's cap on school property taxes in a few weeks, along with bills aimed at reducing education costs and preserving state aid, Senate Majority Leader Dean Skelos said yesterday." We were told about these public comments during a teleconference of Chamber executives involved in the Chamber Alliance of New York earlier this afternoon. The ARCC is also one of the founding members of the New York Property Tax Cap Coalition so the article in Newsday reporting on his remarks is very welcome news. We look forward to seeing Senator Skelos in our region on Monday and to having the chance to thank him for his leadership on this key issue.
