Town of Rye

What Town of Rye does

Town of Rye is a municipal government entity serving residents of the Town of Rye in Westchester County, New York, including the incorporated Village of Rye Brook. It administers a portfolio of mandatory local-government services — property tax collection and assessment, Justice Court processing of parking and traffic violations, issuance of dog licenses and marriage licenses, FOIL request handling, and maintenance of property records and tax maps — delivered both through a Port Chester town office (222 Grace Church Street) and a network of online self-service portals. The Town operates two anchor recreational assets: Crawford Park, a 35-acre historic estate with the Crawford Mansion and event/pavilion rentals, and Rye Town Park, a beachfront facility offering seasonal permits, kayak and SUP rentals, open water swimming, and ADA-accessible beach wheelchairs. Online service is delivered through a Revize-based website with integrated third-party platforms for tax payments (townofryenytax.com), parking ticket payments (RMC Pay), traffic ticket processing (PayCourtOnline), transparency reporting (ClearGov), and meeting notifications (CivicWeb), supplemented by Google Translate for multilingual access.

The Town's revenue model is transaction- and fee-based across five documented streams: property tax collection for the Village of Rye Brook, park and facility rentals (pavilions, sports fields, Crawford Mansion), seasonal beach and parking permits, Justice Court fines, and one-time license fees (dogs, marriages). Its go-to-market is a self-serve/PLG-style resident engagement model layered with in-person and Zoom-streamed public meetings, supported by organic social channels (Facebook, X/Twitter, Instagram, YouTube) and email subscriptions. Geographic segmentation is narrow and exclusive: services are restricted to Town of Rye residents within Westchester County, New York. Strategic positioning is reflected in the establishment of a Climate Smart Community Taskforce, the $8.1M NYS Green Resiliency Grant awarded to Rye Town Park for green infrastructure and flood mitigation, and elevated state-level visibility via Town Supervisor Gary Zuckerman's inclusion in Governor Hochul's State of the State address.
