Cuomo Reaches Deal on N.Y. Tax Cap

By musiclover - Tue Jun 21, 3:42 pm

New York Governor Andrew Cuomo reached agreement with top lawmakers on a property-tax cap, leaving gay marriage as the only unresolved issue on his three- part agenda as the 2011 legislative session winds down.

The tax cap was packaged with an extension of rent-control laws in New York City and so-called mandate relief for municipalities a day after the Legislature was scheduled to end, Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver told reporters today in Albany. Silver, a Democrat, spoke following a meeting with Cuomo and Republican Senate Majority Leader Dean Skelos.
