NOTICE

Refuse Collection Special Benefit Assessment Area Local Law

 

PLEASE TAKE NOTICE THAT a Plan and Map in relation to the creation of a special assessment benefit area for refuse collection has been filed with the Clerk of the Village of Solvay and is available for the public to review and/or obtain copies at the Village Clerk’s office during regular business hours. The Village Board has called a public hearing on the possible adoption by the Village Board of a Local Law creating a Refuse Collection Special Benefit Assessment Area. The Public Hearing, at which all people wishing to be heard will be allowed to speak and ask questions, has been scheduled for April 17th, 2025 at 5:30 pm at the Town of Geddes Town Hall, 1000 Woods Road, Solvay NY 13209 to review and complete the apportionment and map and consider adoption of the local law creating the special assessment.  Currently and in previous years, the costs of refuse collection was charged to subject tax parcel based upon the parcel’s assessed value.  The proposed Refuse Collection Special Benefit Assessment local law would create a special assessment against all tax parcels subject to levy for the payment of Village provided refuse collection.  The annual cost of refuse collection within the Village is established through the public bid process and is currently $697,470 for the upcoming fiscal year.  There are currently 2,476 tax parcels within the Village subject to payment of the cost of municipally provided refuse collection (hereinafter “tax parcels” of “tax parcel”).  The formula which the Village is proposing to establish therefore divides the cost of refuse collection among the subject tax parcels resulting in a special assessment or Unit Charge of $282 per tax parcel.
