N.Y. Workers' Compensation Law § 67: Annual estimate; payments by participants

§ 67. Annual estimate; payments by participants. 1. The committee or

administrator shall annually, not later than the fifteenth day of

August, file with the board of supervisors an estimate of the several

amounts necessary for the ensuing calendar year (a) to meet the payments

with respect to the liability of participants required to be made by the

county pursuant to section sixty-three of this chapter, (b) to pay the

administrative expenses of the plan, (c) to repay any amounts advanced

to the plan and (d) to provide for contributions to the reserve, if any.

The committee or administrator shall then determine the share of such

amounts chargeable to each participant in the manner prescribed by

section sixty-six of this chapter. A list of the amount of the share

payable by each participant shall be furnished to the county treasurer.

The committee or administrator shall notify each participant in writing

not later than September first of the amount of such share. Each

participant shall pay the county treasurer the amount so specified in

such notice not later than thirty days after the commencement of such

participant's next fiscal year. All amounts so received shall be

credited to the county self-insurance fund. If any such amount shall not

be paid within the time limit, the same shall be recovered by an action

brought by the county or such amount shall be certified by the county

treasurer to the board of supervisors for inclusion in the next

succeeding tax levy, if any, against property taxable by the participant

responsible therefor.

2. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this section, the board

of supervisors may by local law provide, in lieu of collecting the

amounts apportioned to participants, or a class thereof, as provided in

subdivision one of this section, that each such participant's share of

such amounts shall be collected by inclusion in the next succeeding tax

levy against property taxable by the participant responsible therefor.

When collected such amounts shall be paid over to the county treasurer

and by him credited to the county self-insurance fund.
