The Saratoga County Real Property Tax Committee on June 4, 2025 authorized a tax refund for a property in the Town of Hilton Park after staff said sewer units remained on the tax file despite the building being removed in February 2012.

A Real Property Tax staff member told the committee the county received a request earlier in the year for a corrected tax bill after paperwork confirmed the building had been removed in 02/2012 and sewer charges were not removed from the file. "We can only give them 3 years by law. So this is to give them to 2023 and 2024 refund of taxes, for the removal of the sewer units," the staff member said.

The committee voted by voice to approve the refund authorization; the transcript records the outcome as "Aye" and "Passes." The meeting record does not include the motion maker or seconder by name, the exact dollar amount of the refund, or a roll-call tally. Staff said the earlier resolution revised the tax bill and the paperwork to issue the refund had been completed.

No additional conditions or appeals information was discussed on the record at the meeting.
