2009/2010 STAR SCHOOL TAX SAVINGS--AND HOW MUCH YOUR STAR BENEFITS WERE REDUCED BY COMMUNITY.... This info was prepared by the office of the Receiver of Taxes (David Dwinell is the Receiver).
STAR is a state program. The NY State Legislature determines how much funding is appropriated for STAR. Funding was reduced from the state budget due to the NYS budget crisis.
The first number is the STAR subsidy. The second number is how much the taxpayer is losing in STAR assistance compared to last year. In Tarrytown, for example, the reduction was $335.75 for basic STAR. Seniors who receive enhanced star saw their STAR benefits go down by $628.58.
