Town of Oyster Bay approves tax exemptions for disabled vets, spouses of killed police officers

The Town of Oyster Bay adopted laws giving tax exemptions to spouses of police officers killed in the line of duty and disabled veterans and approved the issuance of over $5 million of bonds for capital programs. 

Doug Larose, an assistant town attorney, presented the board with the two proposed laws, saying state law changes from late 2025 allowed the town the opportunity to consider making the change.
