* § 1448-b. Deposit   and   disposition  of  revenue.  1.  All  taxes,   penalties and interest imposed  by  the  town  under  the  authority  of   section  fourteen hundred forty-one of this article, which are collected   by the treasurer or his or her agents, shall be deposited  in  a  single   trust  fund  for  the  town  and shall be kept in trust and separate and   apart from all other monies in possession of the  treasurer.  Moneys  in   such  fund  shall  be  deposited  and  secured in the manner provided by   section ten of the general municipal law. Pending expenditure from  such   fund,  moneys  therein may be invested in the manner provided in section   eleven of the general municipal law. Any interest earned or capital gain   realized on the moneys so deposited or  invested  shall  accrue  to  and   become part of such fund.2.  The  treasurer shall retain such amount as he or she may determine   to be necessary for refunds with respect to the tax imposed by the town,   under the authority  of  section  fourteen  hundred  forty-one  of  this   article,  out of which the treasurer shall pay any refunds of such taxes   to those taxpayers entitled to a refund pursuant to  the  provisions  of   this article.3. The treasurer, after reserving such refunds, shall on or before the   twelfth  day  of  each  month  pay  to  the  town  supervisor the taxes,   penalties and interest imposed  by  the  town  under  the  authority  of   section  fourteen  hundred  forty-one  of this article, collected by the   treasurer, pursuant to this article during the next  preceding  calendar   month.  The  amount so payable shall be certified to the town supervisor   by the treasurer, who shall not be held liable  for  any  inaccuracy  in   such  certification.  Provided,  however,  any such certification may be   based on such information as may be available to the  treasurer  at  the   time  such  certification  must  be  made  under this section. Where the   amount so paid over to the town in any such distribution is more or less   than the amount due to the  town,  the  amount  of  the  overpayment  or   underpayment shall be certified to the town supervisor by the treasurer,   who  shall  not be held liable for any inaccuracy in such certification.   The amount of the overpayment or underpayment shall be so  certified  to   the  town  supervisor  as soon after the discovery of the overpayment or   underpayment  as  reasonably  possible  and  subsequent   payments   and   distributions  by  the  treasurer  to  the  town  shall  be  adjusted by   subtracting the amount of any such overpayment from  or  by  adding  the   amount  of  any  such underpayment to such number of subsequent payments   and distributions as the treasurer and town  supervisor  shall  consider   reasonable  in  view  of  the  overpayment or underpayment and all other   facts and circumstances.4. All monies received from the treasurer shall be  deposited  in  the   fund of the town, pursuant to section sixty-four-f of the town law.* NB Repealed December 31, 2025
