Tax Free NY proposal could boost New York economy
Gov Andrew Cuomo pursues a plan to tax free zones around SUNY and community colleges and select areas, offering 5 to 10 year exemptions on business taxes, personal taxes, and a first 200000 dollar salary exemption for individuals. It would require SUNY approval, careful scrutiny, and regular monitoring to recapture lost taxes if goals aren’t met. The idea aims to attract new jobs and investment, despite concerns from past incentive programs.
