Town of Malone Budget Info/Facts
The Town
of Malone utilizes the calendar year, January - December as the
Fiscal Year.
The Budget
process begins in mid-August, with the Budget Officer requesting
information from all departments. All department
requests/estimates are due back to the Budget Officer no later
than September 20th. It is the duty of the Budget Officer to
prepare estimates if one is not submitted.
The
tentative budget must be completed and filed with the Town Clerk
by September 30th, and must be presented to the Town Board at a
regular or special meeting on or before October 5th, in
accordance with NYS Town Law.
Once the
town board reviews and makes changes to the tentative budget and
upon completion of those changes, the budget is then called the
preliminary budget. A public hearing must be held on the
preliminary budget, with a legal notice of public hearing to be
published in the official newspaper and posted on the signboard
of the town. At least five days shall elapse between the first
date of publication and the date of the hearing, and the hearing
must be held no later than the Thursday following the November
Election.
Adoption
of the budget must take place no later than November 20th.
The Town
is tax exempt. Being a government municipality we have a
blanket exemption. Our Tax Exempt number is 15-6001023, and if
you need a tax exempt form, just contact the office.
The Town
of Malone uses Purchase Orders to buy materials and supplies for
any Town department. The Town of Malone pays by an original
invoice or by a signed voucher, with bills presented to the Town
Board for review and approval in conjunction with Town Board
meetings, which are held on the second and fourth Wednesday of
each month. Some alterations may be made to the meeting
schedule, due to holidays, etc, but are preceded by a legal
notice in order to notify the public of the change in schedule.
