providing for the voluntary termination of the status of the Village as an
assessing unit, as now provided in the Village Law and the Real Property Tax
Law. It is also the intent of said Board to abolish the Board of Assessors
in the Village and to terminate any and all responsibility as provided by

On or after the effective date of this article the Village shall cease
to be an assessing unit.
The Board of Assessors in the Village is hereby abolished.
The Board of Assessment Review in the Village is hereby abolished.
On or after the effective date of this article real property taxes in
the Village shall be levied according to a copy of the applicable part of
the assessment roll of the County of Nassau, with the taxable status date
of said county controlling for Village purposes.
Within five days of the effective date of this article the Board of
Trustees of the Village shall cause to be filed a copy of such article with
the County Clerk and the Board of Assessors of the County of Nassau and with
the State Board of Real Property Services.
This article shall take effect immediately upon filing with the Secretary
of State, provided, however, that such local law is subject to a permissive
referendum and the Village Clerk is directed to forthwith proceed to give
notice of such fact and conduct such referendum if required by petition as
provided by law.
