Do we have to apply for the STAR program?
Barbara and Paul,
The only folks who need to reapply for the STAR exemption are people who are over the age of 65. If you are under the age of 65 and have not yet applied for the basic star, you will need to apply for the first time. March 1st is the deadline to apply for exemptions so for this year it is too late. If you have already signed up for basic star you do not need to reapply til you reach the age of 65. If you have any further questions, please feel free to contact me at the e-mail address on this website.

Assessor, Town of Tompkins
Looking for a telephone number for the building inspector.
Thank you!
Hello Julie, The building inspector (the code enforcement officer) is Nate Sramek. 607-865-8341 is the number we have listed for him.
As a town resident I wanted to thank Helen S. Zandt for her years of service as the Town Historian.
I’d also like to welcome Lynne Van Valkenburg who was appointed to this position in January 2015.
Hello, I spoke on the phone with Nate Sramek last week but I don’t have his email address. Any chance someone might be able to provide me with it?
Thanks
Keith Perry
Nate had asked us to post his office number only. If you haven’t already gotten it, you’ll have to call him again.
