Title of bill
An act to authorize the village of Plandome Manor to enter into a contract to sell or pledge as collateral for a loan some or all of the delinquent liens held by such village to a private party or engage a private party to collect some or all of the delinquent tax liens held by it; and providing for the repeal of such provisions upon expiration thereof
Purpose of the bill
To allow the village of Plandome Manor to use various options, at their discretion, in the collection and disposition of delinquent taxes above and beyond the options presently available to them.
Summary of provisions
Section 1 and section 2 authorize the village the Plandome Manor to enter into a contract to sell some or all of its delinquent tax liens to private parties, and allows the village to set the terms and conditions of sale.
Section 3 establishes the effective date and sunset date.
Justification
The village of Plandome Manor is owed tens of thousands of dollars in unpaid property taxes and that this municipality should be given the opportunity to utilize as many procedural methods as possible to collect the monies owed from the unpaid taxes. Such uncollected taxes adversely impact the municipality's ability to meet their operating expenditures and provide for the delivery of necessary and essential local government services, amplifying the risk of future real property tax increases and negatively impacting those taxpayers who timely remit payment. There exists limited means for municipalities to expedite the collection of such delinquent taxes and that it is in the public interest to increase the number of methods available to municipalities to expedite such collections. Many delinquencies often remain unpaid thereby creating a lien against the affected real property. The assignment or sale of such tax liens, either individually or in bulk, will enable municipalities to expedite the receipt of anticipated revenues and provide a new funding source for municipalities that have significant budgetary problems.
