BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that this Resolution is subject to a permissive referendum  as provided in Section 64 (2) of the Town Law of the State of New York and shall not take effect  until thirty (30) days after the date of its adoption, nor until approved by the affirmative vote of a  majority of the qualified electors of the Town voting on such proposition, if within thirty (30) days  after the adoption of this Resolution, there be filed with the Town Clerk of the Town a petition  signed, and acknowledged or proved, or authenticated by electors of the Town qualified to vote  upon a proposition to raise and expend money, in number equal to at least five per centum of the  total vote cast for governor in the Town at the last general election held for the election of State  officers, but which shall not be less than one hundred in a town of the first class nor less than  twenty-five in a town of the second class, protesting against this Resolution and requesting that it  be submitted to the qualified electors of the Town, for their approval or disapproval.

Completion due dates for design, commencement of construction, commencement of operation, compliance with new effluent limitations, and start dates for fecal coliform and total residual chlorine reporting have been modified. Additionally, a requirement for a flow study was added to the Schedule of Compliance to determine the proper sizing of the disinfection system.

Regardless of whether you choose to remain in your home, YOU ARE REQUIRED TO TAKE CARE OF YOUR PROPERTY & pay property taxes in accordance with state & local law. Foreclosure rescue scams  Be careful of people who approach you with offers to “save” your home.

You should be extremely careful about any such promises and any suggestions that you pay them a fee or sign over your deed. State law requires anyone offering such services for profit to enter into a contract which fully describes the services they will perform and fees they will charge, and which prohibits them from taking any money from you until they have completed all such promised services.
