Political partyRepublican
SpouseLinda Mangano

Edward P. Mangano (born March 24, 1962) is the County Executive and was a county legislator in Nassau County, New York. He was elected in 1995 and served seven terms.[1] He defeated incumbent Thomas R. Suozzi for Nassau County Executive in an election that was held on November 3, 2009.

Early life

Edward Mangano was raised in Bethpage, New York, one of three siblings born to Rachel and John Mangano. He began his professional career as a janitor to put himself though college. While earning undergraduate and law degrees from Hofstra University Mangano found the time to have a successful career in printing and publishing newspapers and, in 1988, was admitted to the New York State Bar. Additionally he went on to serve as counsel to a local law firm on Long Island.

He and his wife, Linda, have two sons; Salvatore and Alexander.[2]

County Legislator

As a legislator, Mangano represented the 17th legislative district of Nassau County as County Legislator. This district includes areas of Bethpage, Hicksville, Plainedge, South Farmingdale, Levittown, Island Trees, and Syosset. He was the first individual elected to serve in the position. He served on the Rules Committee, the Public Works Committee, the Recreation and Parks Committee, the Procedures Committee, and the Economic and Community Development Committee. He was replaced by fellow Republican Rose Marie Walker.

One of his achievements was the revitalization of former United States Navy and Grumman properties spread throughout Nassau County.[3] When Congress had closed these properties, along with other defense plants throughout the country, it was estimated that over 200,000 jobs were lost. Today, formerly abandoned Navy and Grumman properties are home to dozens of new businesses and senior citizen centers,[4][5][6] [7] resulting in tens of thousands of new jobs.[8]

Mangano was a sponsor of legislation preserving land throughout Nassau County, strengthening Megan’s Law,[9] preserving the historic 18th century Jackson/Malcom estate, preserving Underhill Property to protect drinking water,[10] establishing a state-of-the-art fire fighting training center,[11] increasing veteran services, funding a veteran’s monument,[12] created a high technology small business incubator, and established youth programs[13] to provide teenagers with a place to gather.[14]

Mangano also supported County Clean Air Legislation requiring most county vehicles use clean diesel fuel and the installation of filter devices as well as vehicles used contractors the work for the county;[15] cosponsored legislation expanding the real property tax exemption for disabled residents;[16] and supported stricter penalties on business owners that use deceptive practices against consumers.[17]

County Executive campaign

In the spring of 2009, Legislator Mangano began a campaign for Nassau County Executive. His platform included promises to cut wasteful spending, freeze and fix Nassau’s broken property tax assessment system, repeal the new tax on home energy and electricity use, and halt the practice of borrowing and relying on debt to pay current expenses.

In an upset he led the Republicans to a major victory taking 3 of the 4 county wide positions and regaining control of the County Legislature.

County Executive

Home energy tax

Mangano promised that if elected, he would repeal of a home energy tax passed by former County Executive Tom Suozzi, which cost households on average $7.27 a month.[18]

During his inaugural address, Mangano fulfilled his promise by signing an executive order to repeal the tax as of June 1, 2010. His administration estimated the repeal would save families and seniors hundreds of dollars each year.[19] Citing lost revenue, the Nassau County Interim Financial Authority found that the county's $2.6 billion budget was out of balance by $176 million. This led Moody's Investor Service to downgrade the county and put its finances on outlook negative.[18]

Discretionary spending

Mangano has reduced the public payroll, including highly paid managers, by $22 million in 2010.[20] He also launched an effort to sell surplus property such as vehicles and equipment in an effort to reduce maintenance costs. He plans to also reduce the $150 million in annual waste caused by the County’s assessment system.[21]

In an effort to consolidate services for taxpayers, Mangano is working with Nassau BOCES and the superintendents of dozens of local school districts to explore ways to save millions in school spending, by buying in bulk and sharing services such as out of district transportation, purchasing, Information Technology and Telecommunications and internal audits.[22]

Assessment system

The average land owner in Nassau County pays 30% more in property taxes because of the broken assessment system.[vague] The system also had delayed refund money causing $1.13 billion in taxpayer debt.[23] This debt, along with errors in the system, cost taxpayers $250 million each year.[20][24]

Immediately upon taking office, Mangano signed two Executive Orders. The first immediately reduced the interest rate for commercial tax certiorari settlements to 3%, saving taxpayers $1 million. The second created an Assessment Reform Team with a mandate to study the broken property tax assessment system and make recommendations for fixing it. Consisting of real estate experts, ART is tasked with coming up with solutions to fix the problems.[25]

Two more Executive Orders were signed by Mangano in April in an attempt to correct the errors of the annual assessment system before they occurred. The Emergency Taxpayer Protection Order fixed the commercial assessment errors, requiring commercial property owners grieving their assessment to obtain and produce a certified appraisal to the county ensuring their property is properly assessed. This allows Nassau to reduce waste while providing businesses an opportunity to correct their taxes before they would be forced to overpay.[21]

The Tax Stabilization Order will replace the annual assessment system with a four-year cyclical system beginning in 2011. By going onto a cyclical reassessment system, Nassau County will begin to reduce the $250 million in annual tax dollar waste and take the first step towards solvency.[21]

In late October, errors were found in the first school tax-roll released by the Mangano Administration, leaving the County with a 1.3 million dollar school tax bill.[26] Other errors included tax exemptions added and removed from properties at random, including Nassau's own Executive Building, which was included on the roll at $56 million despite being tax-exempt.[26] Following these errors, Mangano fired Assessor Ted Jankowski, who had been appointed by Thomas Suozzi under much criticism, and was determined to be at fault for the errors not being caught.[27] To fix the assessment system further, New York State Assessors Association "Assessor Of The Year" and former Smithtown Assessor, Gregory Hild was appointed to review the system.[28] Mangano and Hild hope to fix the problems within the Assessment Office within the next year.[29]

Job opportunities

Mangano eliminated a $38 million home energy tax[19] on homeowners and eliminated a 13% property tax hike proposed by former County Executive Tom Suozzi.[30]

In March, Mangano negotiated a $166 million Capital Improvement Plan[31] with the Legislature that puts people back to work on public projects throughout Nassau County while improving parks, roads and other county facilities. Mangano also assembled a business development unit, made up of economic development professionals and business resource partners, which has the stated goal of assisting employers trying to relocate or expand their businesses within Nassau County.

State of the County Address

Mangano delivered his first ‘State of the County’ address on March 15, 2010. In it he outlined what he perceived as his early successes, the financial hardships facing Nassau County, and plans for reforming Nassau County.[32]

During the speech Mangano stated that, to solve Nassau County’s woes, structural reforms would be needed to fix the property tax assessment system and rein in county spending.[31]

Proposed 2011 county budget

In his proposed 2011 budget, Mangano proposed the removal of the county guarantee, a policy that saw Nassau County repaying taxes that were wrongfully collected and distributed to school taxes. Under the new policy school districts in Nassau, like the rest of the country, would be responsible for returning funds collected in error.[33] This was met with heated opposition by the school districts, who objected that they would immediately be forced to begin setting money aside to pay the property tax refunds starting in 2013. The budget was approved by the Nassau County legislature on October 30, 2010, with all 8 Democrats voting against and all 11 Republicans voting in favor and all .[34]

Long Island Bus controversy

MTA funding cuts

The operation of Long Island Bus, the public bus transportation system for Nassau County, has been subject to a funding dispute between the Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA), which operates Long Island Bus, and Nassau County. The MTA has historically provided a larger subsidy to Nassau than other suburban counties have received, and asked for an additional $17 million contribution from the county. The County has refused to increase their contribution, accusing the MTA of waste and inefficiency, and has considered terminating their operation agreement with the MTA and privatizing the bus system. In response to the lack of funding, the MTA is considering eliminating half of Long Island Bus' routes in July 2011, and potentially eliminating the entire system at the end of the year.[35][36]

The county's contribution is currently $9.1 million per year out of a total budget of $133.1 million, and the MTA is demanding that this contribution increase to $26 million. The county hopes to pay $4.1 million to a private contractor..[35][37][38]

In light of a threat by the MTA to cut $40 million in funding, which would eliminate Long Island Bus, on July 22, 2010, Mangano announced he would immediately form a committee that would explore privatizing the bus service.[39] The MTA announced plans to not only eliminate $26 million in funding for Long Island Bus but to also hike bus and subway fares in an effort to increase their revenue by 7.5%.[40]

The MTA had previously slashed its Able-Ride service, which was the primary mode of transportation for many people with disabilities.[41] The agency also eliminated 11 routes completely and reduced service on eight others.[42] The MTA had been implicated in continuing to hire high-level employees at the same time as they were cutting services.[43]

On July 21, 2010 it was reported that the MTA was poised to spend more than $1 million to hire 11 additional managers and executives despite 38 percent of their operating budget already dedicated to salaries ($4.2 billion), and nearly 12 percent of that amount related to overtime (over $400 million). As noted in a report released June 24, 2009 by the non-partisan Empire Center for New York State Policy, over 10 percent of the MTA's employees (8,214 in total) make $100,000 or more annually.[43]

A partial compromise was reached on April 1, 2011 as the New York State Legislature moved to provide an extra $8.6 million to avoid the July service cuts, which would have eliminated half of Long Island Bus' lines. This compromise saw Nassau County pay half the increase that the MTA had sought. No provision was made for future years, though.[37][44] and later in April the MTA Board voted to terminate the Long Island Bus contract at the end of the year.[45]

Lawsuit

On July 29, Mangano announced he filed a lawsuit against the Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) on behalf of Nassau’s taxpayers challenging the legality of the MTA Employer Payroll Tax.[46] The suit also seeks a reimbursement of more than $3 million already paid to the MTA by Nassau County. Nassau County has paid approximately $3 million since the implementation of the MTA Employer Payroll Tax.[47]

The lawsuit challenges the legality and constitutionality of the MTA Employer Payroll Tax on the grounds that it is unconstitutional and illegal as it impinges upon the Home Rule Powers of local municipalities; that the payroll tax inequitably taxes and discriminates against Nassau County and all businesses that must remit the payroll tax; and that the process in which the payroll tax was implemented violated the New York State Constitution.[47] Since its filing, several municipalities have joined Nassau's lawsuit against the MTA,[48] including Orange County,[48] Putnam County,[49] Rockland County,[50] Westchester County[51] and Suffolk County.[52]

Privatization proposal

Mangano has stated he will pursue the privatization of Long Island Bus should the Authority leave 100,000 riders stranded on January 1, 2011. On September 24, 2010 he issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) to privatize Nassau’s public bus service.[53] On June 10, 2011, the RFP committee chose Veolia Transportation as the operator, to take over January 1, 2012.[54]

Further developments

On September 7, 2010 Mangano called for the immediate resignation of Metropolitan Transportation Authority Chairman and CEO Jay Walder while also asking the state's Gubernatorial candidates to make a simple promise to voters to shake up leadership at the Authority.[55] A state Comptroller audit had recently called for an end to management's “culture of acceptance” of overtime pay and discovered “serious flaws” in the budget practices of its central office.[56] The comptroller's office also found that 145 MTA employees received overtime pay that exceeded their salaries in 2009. About 5% of the agency's nearly 70,000 workers, or more than 3,200 employees, last year received overtime totaling at least half of their regular salaries.[57]

On September 29, 2010 Nassau County Executive Edward P. Mangano urged all Nassau County businesses to let the MTA know how they feel about the MTA Payroll Tax when they meet the deadline to pay the tax on September 30.[58]

NICE Bus

In November 2011, Veolia and the County announced a new name for Long Island Bus, NICE BUS (Nassau Inter-County Express). Mangano also announced that a five person transportation committee will be formed, consisting of all Nassau residents, to oversee Nassau's bus future. The committee will have to vote on fare and route changes.[59] Prior to this, County Executive Mangano had stated that all routes and fares will not change for a minimum of a year, and that Veolia will be re-instituting the lines the MTA wanted to cut. He has also stated that this private-public partnership will save taxpayers $32.4 million annually. [60]

Community involvement

In addition to his legislative duties, Mangano also serves on many charitable organizations. Currently, he is an active member of the Bethpage Chamber of Commerce and an honorary member of the Hicksville Kiwanis. In the past he has served on the Board of Directors of Children’s House,[16] as a member of the LI Mentoring Partnership Council,[11] was President of the Bethpage/Plainview Rotary Club, was a member of the Grumman Master Planning Council, and was a member of the Town of Oyster Bay Youth Advisory Committee [61] He has also been the Honorary Chairman of Long Island's Toys For Tots program,two years in a row.
