exhilarating jog or walk any time of day.

We must continue to be vigilant in our fight against COVID-19 as we head into the winter
months. Please limit personal contact to your immediate family only, continue to wear a face
covering, practice good hand hygiene, and remember to maintain social distancing. If you haven’t
already done so, please get a Flu shot and remember to ventilate your surroundings by opening
windows whenever possible.

Town of Islip E-Alerts are the fastest way to receive important announcements and information
as soon as it becomes available. Sign up by going to our website at www.islipny.gov

                    Dear Friends,
                      It is that time of year again and I know you have many things on your
                    mind. However, I would be remiss if I didn’t remind you that your tax bill
                    should be arriving at your home no later than December 20th. *Please note
                    that there will likely be special instructions to follow due to COVID. Please
                    feel free to call the Tax Office in December if you are unsure of anything.
                      For your convenience, our office will be open Monday, January 11, 2021
                    until 7:00 p.m. as this is the last day to pay your first half taxes without
                    penalty.
                      It is always my pleasure to serve the residents of this great town. If
                    you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact our office at
                    631-224-5580.
                      My greetings to you and your family for a very joyous Holiday Season and
