Title 3 - Correction of Assessment Rolls and Tax Rolls
557 - Cancellations and Rejections of Certain Delinquent Taxes Returned to County Treasurer.

(b) A statement of the taxes on real property in each city and town so
rejected, including the amount of fees and interest thereon, shall be
forwarded by the county treasurer to the mayor of the city or the
supervisor of the town in which such real property was assessed. Such
mayor or supervisor shall add to the current assessment roll of the city
or town in which the real property is situated, an accurate description
of such real property, the assessment thereof, the correct amount of
taxes due thereon, the tax of each year and each different tax set out
separately, stating that it is a revised assessment. The county
legislature shall direct the collection of such taxes so added to the
assessment roll and they shall be considered the taxes of the year in
which the description is perfected. If such tax be not levied upon such
real property as herein required, the county legislature shall cause the
same, with the amount of fees and interest thereon, to be levied upon
the city or town in which originally assessed, and collected with the
other taxes of the same year.
3. The provisions of subdivisions one and two of this section shall
also apply to returns and accounts of arrears transmitted by a village
board of trustees to a county treasurer pursuant to the provisions of
subdivision four of section fourteen hundred thirty-six of this chapter.
Any amounts to be charged back to a village pursuant to this section
shall be withheld by the county treasurer from any moneys which shall
become payable by him to such village by reason of taxes which shall
thereafter be returned to him as uncollected by such village.
