RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING AN EXTENSION TO PAY TAXES TO
SEPTEMBER 1, 2017.
WHEREAS, the Borough of Carteret adopted its 2017 Municipal Budget on May 18, 2017,

to a reasonable time to receive their tax bills for the third quarter and to pay the same without

$.00000001% shall be charged on unpaid third quarter 2017 taxes provided same are paid on or
before August 31, 2017, and provided further that interest thereafter shall be payable at the
rate of 8% per annum on the first $1,500.00 of the delinquency and 18% per annum on any
amount in excess of $1,500.00 to be calculated from August 1, 2017 until the date of actual
payment.
