Thus, this local law was deemed duly adopted 8-6-1984.
The intent of the Board of Trustees of the Village
of Millbrook 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 (or 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 of
Millbrook.
On or after the effective date of this article,
the Village of Millbrook shall cease to be an assessing unit.
The position of Assessor in the Village of Millbrook
is hereby abolished.
The Board of Assessment Review in the Village
of Millbrook is hereby abolished.
On or after the effective date of this article,
taxes in the Village of Millbrook shall be levied on a copy of the
applicable part of the assessment roll of the Town of Washington,
with the taxable status date of such town controlling for village
purposes.
[Amended 12-16-1997 by L.L. No. 2-1997]
Within five days of the effective date of this
article, the Board of Trustees of the Village of Millbrook shall file

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.
