N.Y. County Law § 280-t: Increase of maximum amount to be expended

§ 280-t. Increase of maximum amount to be expended. At any time after

the establishment of a district pursuant to this article, the maximum

amount authorized to be expended for the original improvement in such

district may be increased by a resolution of the governing body provided

a petition requesting such increase executed and acknowledged in

accordance with section two hundred eighty-d is presented to the

governing body, and provided the governing body shall, after a public

hearing called and held in the manner prescribed by section two hundred

eighty-e, determined that it is in the public interest to authorize the

increase of such maximum amount and provided the comptroller of the

state of New York shall have made, prior to such public hearing, an

order approving the increase of such maximum amount as stated in the

petition. The order of the comptroller shall be prepared in duplicate

and one copy thereof filed in the office of the department of audit and

control and the other copy in the office of the clerk of the governing

body of the county in which the district is located.

If zones of assessment have been established, such resolution of the

governing body shall provide for the allocation of such increase as

between such zones of assessment, and the notice of such public hearing

shall state such allocation.
