Section 19-1918. Unpaid taxes and assessments  


Latest version.
  • 1.  Whenever  the plan
      requires the levy of a tax to pay village indebtedness and such  tax  is
      to  be levied or collected at a time subsequent to the effective date of
      such dissolution, such tax shall be levied and collected as  town  taxes
      are  levied and collected and applied to such indebtedness, and shall be
      levied in the same manner as other town  taxes  upon  the  taxable  real
      property  in  that  portion  of the village situated within the town and
      shall be collected in the same manner as other town taxes.
        2. Any village assessment or installment thereof  which  shall  become
      due  after  the  effective date of dissolution shall likewise be treated
      for all purposes as a town assessment.
        All provisions of the real property tax  law  with  reference  to  the
      return  of  unpaid  town  taxes  and assessments to the county treasurer
      shall apply to such taxes, and the  county  treasurer  shall  thereafter
      proceed to collect such taxes and assessments in the manner provided for
      the collection of town taxes and assessments.
        3.  If  at  the  effective  date of such dissolution there remains any
      uncollected  village  taxes  theretofore  levied,  including  delinquent
      assessments  which  are  deemed unpaid taxes for purposes of collection,
      such taxes shall be reported to the legislative body of  the  county  or
      counties  by  the supervisors of the town or towns in which said village
      was situated, and  such  taxes  shall  be  relevied  upon  the  property
      originally  liable  therefore  in a separate column on the tax roll with
      five per centum of the amount thereof in addition thereto  in  the  same
      manner  as  returned school taxes are required to be relevied, and shall
      be collected by the town tax collector.
