and are the result of higher than expected usage and several severe, hence costly illnesses.

Receivers of Taxes
WHEREAS,
the State of New York determines the manner in which municipal government is
structured and officials are selected, having vested in the citizens of Suffolk County’s towns the
power to elect Receivers of Taxes; and
WHEREAS,
Receivers of Taxes coordinate functions in a manner that currently provides for
economies of scale while simultaneously providing an independent, effective and responsive
structure that guarantees public confidence in the annual warrant of more than $4.5 billion in
property taxes on almost 600,000 discrete parcels; and
WHEREAS,
in addition to accuracy of tax warrants upon which taxes are billed, Receivers of
Taxes are liable for the sums held in their care and for timely disbursement to the various county,
town, village, school district and special district service providers; and
WHEREAS,
elective office is the best way to guarantee the independence of officials with such
authority and the Town – and not the County – is the most efficient level to collect, reconcile and
distribute property taxes among municipal entities within a region of Suffolk’s size and
complexity; and
WHEREAS,
the Town Board is opposed to both the elimination of the right to elect Receivers
of Taxes and attempts to transfer the function of the Receiver from the Town to the County; and
WHEREAS,
supporting this proposed Act is an action as defined by 6 NYCRR §617.2(b), and
therefore no further SEQRA review is required.

is to difficult to determine how many moorings must be removed and their condition in order to advertise
for bids. J. Richter is unable to handle the RFP for removal of abandoned moorings in
