Board approves February treasurer's report and tax-cert agreements for Kohl's and Target plaza
Summary
At its May 5 meeting the Webster board approved the February 2026 treasurer's report and moved to accept tax-certiorari settlement agreements involving Kohl's and the Target plaza; presenters said the settlements offer multi-year challenge protection and no refunds to the district were required.
The Webster Central School District board approved the February 2026 treasurer's report as presented and voted to accept two tax-certiorari settlement agreements involving retail properties (Kohl's and the Target plaza).
The treasurer described February as a low-activity month and the board approved the report by motion.
Regarding tax-certiorari cases, the district said both challenges had been reviewed since last fall, and the proposed settlements had the concurrence of town counsel and the district's legal team. The presenters said the agreements produce a period of challenge protection (three years) and do not result in refunds to the district for prior years. Board members confirmed the properties in question are in Webster and that the townwide revaluation is scheduled for July 1, 2027.
The motions to approve the resolutions were moved and seconded on the record and passed by voice vote.
What this means: tax-cert settlements are routine but important for the district's fiscal forecasting; the decisions were made with counsel input and documented in the meeting record.
Notes on sourcing: exact settlement dollar amounts were not recited in the public portion of the meeting transcript; the transcript records approval motions and voice votes but does not provide a roll-call tally of board member votes.
