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 provided in the Village Law and Real Property Tax Law.
It is also the intent of this article to abolish the position of the Board
of Assessors and to terminate any and all responsibility as provided by law
for the review of the assessments of real property located within the Village

The Village of Fultonville shall cease to be an assessing unit on the
expiration of 30 days after the adoption of this article or upon the approval
of the electors of the village in the event a permissive referendum is held.
The Board of Assessors in the Village of Fultonville is hereby abolished.
On or after the effective date of this article, taxes in the Village
of Fultonville shall be levied on a copy of the applicable part of the assessment
roll of the Town of Glen 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 Fultonville shall file a copy of the local law
with the Clerk and Board of Assessors of the Town of Glen and with the State
Board of Equalization and Assessment.
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/Treasurer shall forthwith proceed to notice
such fact and conduct such referendum if required by petition.
