What makes Monroe County a great place to live? What kinds of businesses, services, opportunities and infrastructure would you like to see more of here? Will your children want to live here? What should Monroe County look like for future generations?

These are among the questions Monroe County Executive Adam Bello invites the community to consider during upcoming Plan Forward comprehensive plan community workshops.

Gathering public input is the first phase of the Plan Forward initiative, which will create the first Comprehensive Plan developed for Monroe County in more than four decades. The Department of Planning and Development is hosting a Virtual Public Workshop from 6 to 7:30 p.m. Tuesday, March 1 via Zoom. Additional in-person workshop dates will be announced soon.

During the workshop, interested residents will be asked to explore what’s working in Monroe County, what’s not, and how the County may leverage its resources to move the community forward together. Residents will be encouraged to participate in specific topic-related conversations about public health and safety, parks and infrastructure, economic and workforce development, resilient communities, and farmland and food.

Typically, all property tax exemptions applications and renewals are due on March 1st each year. To protect the health of our seniors and disabled persons during the pandemic, New York State Legislature passed emergency legislation to permit automatic renewal of these two exemptions for applications that are due on March 1, 2022. The Wheatland Town Board voted to support this legislation and permit the Town Assessor to follow the NYS legislation (local action was required to implement).

Although you may have already received a letter from the Assessor, Wheatland residents who fall into either of these two categories do NOT need to renew in person or by mail to continue their exemption for 2022. For more information visit our Exemptions Page. NEW EXEMPTION APPLICANTS (FIRST TIME APPLICANTS) MUST STILL APPLY BY MARCH 1, 2022. Applications received after that date may be considered for the following tax year, but sometimes you may need to re-file updated information.
