CITY OF MIDDLETOWN MISC CHARGES

Posted By Nick Coffaro, Tuesday, July 23, 2024
Priority Data Research was just informed the following:
I spoke to the tax office and they advised that these charges (if any) will appear on the tax certificates that we submit for.

Overdue Miscellaneous Charges
Please be advised, a local law was recently passed effective as of 2024 allowing delinquent overgrown vegetation, snow removal, garbage can, bulk pick-up, dead tree removal, and building demolition charges to be re-levied onto the City property tax bills. Therefore, please be advised any outstanding Miscellaneous charges must be paid no later than October 31, 2024, to avoid the re-levy onto your 2025 taxes.
 
If you have any questions, please Contact the Finance Office at 845-346-4150.

Updated: Monday, March 23, 2020

 

The following is from a bulletin issued by Empire State Development


 

Important for those of you asking questions about whether vendors, lawyers or other third parties who service financial institutions are essential, the follow is included in the guidance at question 11:

 

QUESTION: What if my business is NOT an “Essential Business” listed on ESD’s guidance but provides services, materials, supplies or other support to an Essential Business?

 

ANSWER: If your firm is a vendor, supplier or provides other support to an Essential Business that is required for the Essential Business’s operation, then your business is exempt from the employment reduction provisions contained in Executive Orders 202.8. However, only those employees necessary to support the Essential Business are exempt from the employment reduction requirements of Executive Orders 202.8 and your business is still required to utilize telecommuting or work from home procedures to the maximum extent possible.

 

 


Superior Data Services has shared a report on municipal office hours and service reductions.  You can download the file below. It is labeled "COMBINED TOWN STATUS".

 

All reports and updates are constantly being refreshed, so check with your service provider to the most current information.

Local Government Service Changes - March 16, 2020

Posted By Robert Treuber, Monday, March 16, 2020
Updated: Monday, March 16, 2020

A Report from the Municipal Liaison Committee

 

In light of the current health crisis, the title industry should expect changes in municipality hours of service and closures throughout New York State. 
 
We have already seen partial closures at county offices, and in the city, town and village governments. We should also expect that there will be cases where the municipality will close and the employees will not be available for any access to public information. Municipalities that have created public internet access to specific information should not be disrupted during this time.    
 
Some of the municipalities remain fully staffed but are limiting access or closing to the public. In these cases, they are providing an alternative method of obtaining public information. These alternative methods often require more involvement by municipal workers, which may cause delays in the return times of municipals, tax and exam searches. Each individual municipality closing will be different.
 
You should contact your examiner and/or municipal vendor with questions regarding a specific municipality.
