-

WASHINGTON, D.C. – April 20, 2015 – (RealEstateRama) — Assembly Republican Budget Officer Declan O’Scanlon, R-Monmouth, issued the following statement following Sunday’s news report Assembly Republicans have no interest in participating in a bipartisan panel on property tax reform :

“Assembly Republicans have been asking Trenton Democrats, who control the Legislature, for a bipartisan discussion on New Jersey’s property tax crisis for years. For the last five years, Republicans have proposed legislation calling for a special session of the Legislature to consider property tax relief and reform.

“We have proposed Direct Tax Relief for New Jersey Families, eliminating payouts for unused sick leave and changing the school funding formula. We are ready to discuss these initiatives and other proposals with the Majority at any time.

“I consider Majority Leader Greenwald a friend and have directly indicated to him my willingness to participate in property tax reform discussions. To make it absolutely clear, I stand ready to participate in a dialogue on property tax reform, whether it takes place in the form of a special legislative session or at a diner over coffee.”
