[Adopted 7-25-1994 by L.L. No. 5-1994 (Ch.
105 of the 1971 Code)]
The Town Board of the Town of Fallsburg has
determined that, from time to time, it would be appropriate for the
Town to send notification regarding official Town business to all
property owners within the Town. The Town Board has determined that
the most cost-efficient method to provide these notices to property
owners within the Town is to include these notices with the annual
tax bill which is sent by the Town to the property owners. In this
manner, the notices could be sent with the tax bill, and the Town
would save the postage charges to send the notices separate from the
tax bills.
Section 1826 of the Tax Law of the State of
New York permits a municipality to send notices, circulars, pamphlets,
cards, handbills, and printed or written notices of any kind, other
than advertising and propaganda material (collectively referred to
as "Official Notices"), to property owners within the Town together
with an official tax bill or notification of tax to be assessed or
levied.
In furtherance of § 1826 of the Tax
Law of the State of New York, the Town Board of the Town of Fallsburg
hereby authorizes any person, corporation, association, or agent or
employee thereof, who mails or delivers or causes to be mailed or
delivered a Town tax bill or notification of a tax to be assessed
or levied, to include with said tax bill or notification any Official
Notices, provided that, in each instance in which any such Official
Notice is sent, the inclusion of such Official Notice is authorized
by an appropriate resolution of the Town Board.
