County Commissioner of Finance to those officers charged by law with the custody
of school district monies, and together with seven percent of the combined amount of
principal plus accrued interest, be re-levied via the 2017 General Tax upon the real
property upon which the school taxes were originally imposed, so long as the
accounts of unpaid school taxes for the 2016-2017 school year have been filed with
the Clerk of the Ulster County Legislature prior to the re-levying of the unpaid taxes;
and, be it further
RESOLVED, that when such re-levy (the unpaid tax, accrued interest, plus
