RESOLVED, that when such re-levy (the unpaid tax, accrued interest, plus seven percent on the sum of both) is collected, the same shall be returned to the Ulster County Commissioner of Finance to reimburse the County for the amount advanced and for the expense of collection,
and moves its adoption.
