This toolkit explores the application of property tax cap overrides, land banks and trusts, PILOTs, and community benefits agreements as responses to the issues of property tax caps, declining populations, tax-exempt properties, and challenges related to economic development. This case looks at the application to the state of New York, but the tools can be implemented in other communities.
