[Adopted 5-10-1988 by L.L. No. 3-1988]
The intent of the Board of Trustees of the Village of Scottsville is
to implement § 1402, Subdivision 3, of the Real Property Tax Law
providing for the voluntary termination of the village's status as an
assessing unit, as now provided in the Village Law and the Real Property Tax
Law. It is also the intent of this article to abolish the position of Assessor
and to terminate any and all responsibility as provided by law for the review
of the assessments of real property located within the Village of Scottsville.
On or after the effective date of this article, taxes in the Village
of Scottsville shall be levied on a copy of the applicable part of the assessment
roll of the Town of Wheatland, with the taxable status date of such town controlling
for village purposes.
Within five days of the effective date of this article, the Board of
Trustees of the Village of Scottsville shall file a copy of such article with
the Clerk and Assessor of the Town of Wheatland 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 article is subject to a permissive
referendum, and the Village Clerk shall forthwith proceed to notice such fact
and conduct such referendum if required by petition.[1]
