Receiver of Taxes, Town of Oyster Bay: Vincent Macchio

Macchio, 64, of Plainview, is running for Oyster Bay receiver of taxes.

He owns a commercial and residential property remodeling business and previously worked as a trader in financial services.

He graduated from Hofstra University.

Macchio said he wants to change property tax billing so that bills are emailed by default with an option to opt out of electronic billing if someone wants paper bills.

He said he wants to work with the county government to streamline the process of property tax assessments so that owners won’t need to pay third-party firms to grieve their taxes.

He said he would issue reports internally to show how tax dollars were being spent.
