RAMAPO SCORES TAX VICTORY OVER MILLENNIUM PIPELINE

From WRCR AM 1300 Radio Rockland, Local News & Information Feb 12 2010

The town of Ramapo has won a victory worth a half-million dollars a year to town taxpayers. Supervisor Christopher St. Lawrence told WRCR listeners this morning the town has won a tax-assessment case against Millennium Pipeline. The town contends that the firm’s natural gas pipeline through Ramapo has been greatly under-valued, with Millennium paying far less than its fair share of taxes. The town took its case to the state and won. St. Lawrence said state officials raised the pipeline’s valuation from $9-million to more than $38-million – resulting in at least $500,000 a year in Town tax coffers.
