WHEREAS, on June 24, 2011, the New York State Legislature enacted Chapter 97 of the New

vote of at least sixty percent (60%) of the total voting power of the Town Board for the Town of

healthy fund balance reserves may require a real property tax cap levy in excess of the limit

therefor be it
RESOLVED that the Town Board of the Town of Southold hereby ENACTS the proposed Local
Law entitled, “A Local Law to Override the Tax Levy Limit established by and set forth in
General Municipal Law §3-c” as follows:
Local Law No. __________ 2021
A LOCAL LAW TO OVERRIDE THE TAX LEVY LIMIT ESTABLISHED BY AND
SET FORTH IN GENERAL MUNICIPAL LAW § 3-C
Section 1. Purpose
The purpose of this Local Law is to allow the Town of Southold to override the limit on the
amount of real property taxes that may be levied by the Town of Southold, Suffolk County, New
York pursuant to General Municipal Law 3-c and to allow the Town of Southold to adopt a town
budget for town purposes and any other special or improvement districts governed by the town
board for the fiscal year 2022 that requires a real property tax levy in excess of the “tax levy
limit” as defined by General Municipal Law § 3-c.
The Town of Southold has made significant efforts to reduce spending in an effort to avoid
piercing the tax levy limit, however, in order to account for the increase in costs to provide town
services and fund town operations for 2022, while at the same time maintaining the Town’s high
credit rating and general fund reserves, will likely require adoption of a budget in excess of the
tax levy limit.
Section 2. Authority
This local law adopted pursuant General Municipal Law § 3-c (5) which expressly authorizes a
local government’s governing body to override the tax levy limit by the adoption of a local law
approved by a vote of sixty percent (60%) of the Town Board.
Section 3. Tax Levy Limit Override
The Town Board of the Town of Southold, County of Suffolk, is hereby authorized to adopt a
budget for the fiscal year 2022 that requires a real property tax levy in excess of the limit
established by and set forth in General Municipal Law § 3-c.
Section 4. Severability
If a court determines that any clause, sentence, paragraph, subdivision, or part of this local law or
the application thereof to any person, firm or corporation, or circumstance is invalid or
unconstitutional, the court’s order or judgment shall not affect, impair, or invalidate the
remainder of this local law, but shall be confined in its operation to the clause, sentence,
paragraph, subdivision, or part of this local law or in its application to the person, individual,
form or corporation or circumstance, directly involved in the controversy in which such
judgment or order shall be rendered.
Section 5. Effective date
This local law shall take effect immediately upon filing with the Secretary of State
