Speaker 13 introduced the treasurer and reported that the county's main tax sale included 46 parcels and that $77,719.85 in back taxes has been paid so far. The treasurer said the first installment has been received and that the next installment is expected next week to complete the total.
Staff listed four Board of Equalization adjustments: parcel 27-3833 (acreage corrected), 26-6951 (Greenbelt status and market-value change), 26-4279 (merged primary land and Greenbelt values), and 34-0982 (square footage corrected from 10 to 660 sq ft), characterized as cleanups from the assessor's office.
Speaker 3 asked the commission to refund $63,465.18 to Stone Ridge Ventures (a leasing company for NYDIG) following a double payment; a motion to refund was made, but the transcript does not record a formal roll-call or voice vote on the refund. Staff indicated they will coordinate with county counsel and further communications as needed.
What happens next: the treasurer will finalize the remaining installment payments next week; staff will return documentation and seek any required legal advice regarding the refund request.
