N.Y. Highway Law § 244: Report of town superintendents, and levy of tax

§ 244. Report of town superintendents, and levy of tax. The town

superintendent of each town shall make a full and verified report of

their proceedings in the premises including an accurate account of what

has been done in respect to such bridge, and shall attach thereto a copy

of the order granted by the supreme court. Such report, account and

order shall be certified by the town board and delivered to the

supervisor and be presented by him to the board of supervisors of his

county. The board of supervisors at their annual meeting shall levy a

tax upon each of such towns, when in the same county, and upon the

appropriate towns when in different counties, for its share of the costs

of building, rebuilding and repairing such bridge, after deducting all

payments actually made by the supervisor upon the written order of the

town superintendent. Such tax, including all payments, shall in no case

exceed the amount specified in the order of the supreme court.
