            1.2. Legislative Authority.  This local law is adopted pursuant to New York State General Municipal Law (GML), §3-c(5) that expressly authorizes a local government’s governing body to override the property tax cap for the coming fiscal year by the adoption of a local law approved by a vote of 60% of said governing body

            1.3. Purpose. It is the intent of this article to allow the Village of Dering Harbor to adopt a budget for the fiscal year commencing June 1, 2023 that requires a real property tax levy in excess of the tax levy limit as defined by General Municipal Law §3-c.

Section 2.  Tax Levy Limit Override.  The Board of Trustees of the Village of Dering Harbor is hereby authorized to adopt a budget for the fiscal year commencing June 1, 2023 that requires a real property tax levy in excess of the amount otherwise prescribed in the GML, §3-c.
