Mayor Eric Adams partially reversed course Tuesday and pledged to release “information” from his taxes following days of criticism from government reform groups after he initially refused to commit to disclosing his returns.

Hizzoner gave a firm “no” last week when asked to release his federal and state tax returns in accordance with a decades-old precedent of transparency concerning the city executive’s finances — a commitment Adams again refused to make when pressed during a Staten Island press conference.

“We’re going to release tax information,” Adams told reporters under questioning, arguing he’d not had any “hesitation” about it.

However, Adams then reiterated that there is no law requiring him to provide the documents, reprising an argument he made Friday when he initially refused to say if he would release the records.

“We’re gonna release the tax information. Now remember, I’m not required,” Adams added. “You know that right? So let’s be clear on that.”

And when pressed if he would commit to releasing his actual return, the mayor demurred and only said: “I’m going to release tax information.”

Every mayor since Ed Koch in the late 1970s has released either partial or complete tax returns to the public.

Gov. Kathy Hochul, President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris have also already made their filings available this year.

There were no further details about the mayor’s taxes immediately available, City Hall officials said, because the Adams filed for an extension giving him until October to submit his final paperwork to the federal and state tax authorities.

City Hall Press Secretary Fabien Levy said Adams sought the extension after testing positive for COVID on April 10 and that it was accepted Monday, but could not say what day it was requested.

Levy also said that Adams had cut a check to the authorities based on the preliminary estimate of his tax bill, but refused to say how much the mayor had tentatively paid.

Adams’ finances were the subject of intense scrutiny during the 2021 mayoral campaign when reporters revealed the then-Brooklyn borough president failed to properly disclose rental income that he earned as a landlord of a building in Brooklyn — forcing him to amend his filings.

The returns also highlighted questions about Adams’ living arrangements as he reported spending zero days at the Bedford-Stuyvesant address that he listed as his primary residence.

Adams’ campaign blamed the inaccuracies on his accountant at the time, Clarence Harley, who could not be located by reporters.

Levy said Adams’ taxes this year are being done by someone new, Edgar James, an accountant with offices across the street from Brooklyn Borough Hall, which is where Adams officed for eight years as BP.

The mayor’s finances once again entered the spotlight Friday after reporters pressed Adams on if he would promise to making his returns public, telling a reporter who asked if the public could get a commitment: “No, you can’t.”

At the time, Adams told reporters that he would guarantee that he would complete the disclosures required by the city Conflict of Interest Board, which are typically less detailed than tax returns.
