Brianna Baker-Stines and Receiver of Taxes, Town of Smithtown

Pledges equal, nonpartisan service to taxpayers regardless of party, neighborhood, or political affiliation.

Seeks stronger financial controls, regular reconciliation, and responsible financial practices to improve accountability and protect taxpayer dollars.

Calls for transparent tax administration, modern payment infrastructure, and reasonable, responsive service for Smithtown residents.

I’m running for Receiver of Taxes to bring transparency, modernization, and a more resident-focused approach to the office. The current system is outdated and can be frustrating to navigate, with fees and processes that don’t always serve the public well.

Smithtown residents deserve transparency about their taxes. We deserve a modern infrastructure that allows us to pay our taxes efficiently and without exorbitant fees. And most of all, we deserve a town official that is reasonable and responsive to our concerns.

With nine years of local board experience and a background in nonprofit and government-entity finance and accounting, I have the skills to improve how this office operates. I’m committed to making the process clearer, more efficient, and more responsive for everyone.
