Now that the Bill has been passed permitting the Grinnell Library tax assessment to be
listed separately on tax bills, please make arrangements to have the Dutchess County
Real Property Tax Service Agency list these amounts separately on the bill. I am not
precisely sure how the process would work but I recommend contacting Steve Curran and
forwarding him a copy of the Bill/ Chap 652 Laws of 2002.
Very truly yours,
