209-18 September 25, 2018 RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING COST OF MAILING FOR ELECTRONIC TAX SALE WHEREAS, NJSA 54:5-19.1 authorizes electronic tax sales pursuant to rules and regulations to be promulgated by the Director of the Division of Local Government Services, and WHEREAS, the rules and regulations require a municipality to send two (2) notices of tax sale to all properties included in said sale; and WHEREAS, the rules and regulations allow said municipality to charge a fee of $25.00 per notice for the creation, printing and mailing of said notice; and WHEREAS, in an effort to more fairly assign greater fiscal responsibility to delinquent taxpayers, the Township of West Orange will charge $25.00 per notice mailed which will be assessed specifically to the delinquent accounts that are causing the need for a tax sale and not to the general tax base. NOW, THEREFORE BE IT HEREBY RESOLVED BY THE TOWNSHIP COUNCIL OF THE TOWNSHIP OF WEST ORANGE that a fee of $25.00 per notice be established and is hereby authorized and directed to be charged for each notice of tax sale that is sent in conjunction with the 2018 electronic tax sale. Karen J. Carnevale, R.M.C. Susan McCartney Municipal Clerk Council President Adopted: September 25, 2018
