In accordance with Subparagraph (2) of Paragraph 4.a. of Subdivision
(a) of § 8021 of the Civil Practice Law and Rules, the Monroe
County Legislature authorizes the Monroe County Clerk to increase
the fees charged for certain documents recorded with the Monroe County
Clerk’s office.
Whenever the Monroe County Clerk renders a service, other than
in its capacity as clerk of the Supreme or the County Court, or other
than in an action pending in a court of which it is clerk, in connection
with papers or instruments relating to real property and not filed
under the Uniform Commercial Code, the Monroe County Clerk shall be
entitled to a fee, payable in advance, for recording, entering, indexing
and endorsing a certificate on any instrument, of $20 and, in addition
thereto, of $5 for each page or portion of a page. For the purpose
of determining the appropriate recording fee, the fee for any cover
page shall be deemed an additional page of the instrument.
