For the first time in many years, tax collection has
reached well above the 75% of warrant mark.  This
means that more and more property owners are
current with their property taxes in Portville.  
By March
31st, Portville had collected 84.9% of the tax warrant
for town, county, and delinquent school and village
taxes.  This is a remarkable percentage that we all
should be very proud of in our community.  Thank you!
After nearly 4 months of hearings and research, the
Commission On Property Tax Relief has issued its
preliminary report to Governor Paterson on its findings
and recommendations to stem the tide of escalating
property taxes.  Click

report.

The Village of Portville maintained a flat millrate of $8.86

years of 2008 and 2009.  While the village's 2009
budget dropped slightly from $263,813 to $260,057, the
number of village property exemptions rose which
reduced the taxable assessment roll.
