[Adopted 2-14-1996 by L.L. No. 1-1996]
This article shall be known as "A Local Law
to Establish a Fee to be Charged by the Town of Bethlehem to Send
a Delinquent Tax Notice as Required by § 987, Subdivision
1, of the New York State Real Property Tax Law."
Chapter 680 of the Real Property Tax Law requires
that a delinquent tax notice be sent by the Receiver of Taxes to all
property owners whose taxes are delinquent. Until recently, a charge
of $1 was mandatory. The Real Property Tax Law has been amended so
that said charge may be as much as $2 but is no longer mandatory.
The Receiver of Taxes has determined that a
fee should be charged and that a fee of $1 is adequate to compensate
the Town for the cost of sending the notice.
On or after the effective date of this article,
there shall be a fee charged for the sending of the delinquent tax
notice required by the New York State Real Property Tax Law in the
amount of $1.
