According to the calculations of George V. Sweeting, a city tax expert, even if neither the increase nor the rebate had occurred, the average tax bill would have increased to $2,346 this year from $1,849 in 2003. The average Class 1 tax bill this year is $2,365, factoring in the rebate, only $19 more than if neither the increase nor the rebate had ever happened, according to Mr. Sweeting, a deputy director at the budget office who oversees tax policy research.
