In 2012, an audit by the NYS comptroller's office was conducted to examine disbursements, real property tax and water rent billings and collections.  The report was published on March 29, 2013 and covers the period from June 1, 2010 to April 30, 2012.
The report found:
1) Deficiencies in the Village’s internal controls over cash disbursements. 
2) Internal controls were not adequate to ensure real property taxes and water     rents were properly accounted for.
3) Deposits were not made timely in compliance with Real Property Tax Law and     Village policy.
4) Appropriate amounts of interest and penalties were not collected.

The Village agreed with the report and has already begun to restore the internal safe guards recommended to ensure the safety of village finances.  In addition, a written procedure will be designed for future administrations to follow and adopt.  A copy of the audit is also on file with the Village Clerk and can be viewed by appointment.  Please call 895-2199 or 895-2257 for a convenient time.
