For brevity and ease of communication, this article may be cited
as the "Sewer Rent Law for Shandaken's Septic Maintenance District."
The Town Board of the Town of Shandaken, pursuant to the provisions
of Article 14-f of the General Municipal Law, entitled "Sewer Rent
Law" and, in particular, § 452 thereof, does hereby establish
and impose sewer rents to be charged to property owners with septic
systems located within the district.
Sewer rent shall be billed with or at the same time as the Town
property tax bill and is due 30 calendar days from the date of billing.
If the sewer rent has not been paid by the due date set forth on the
invoice, interest shall accrue on the unpaid balance at a rate of
2% per month, retroactive to the date of the original billing. To
the extent that the sewer is delinquent for a period of at least 60
days, the district shall report the name and amount due to the appropriate
Town and county officials, and the county shall pay such sewer rent
to the district in the same manner as delinquent property tax.
