Summary:
Municipal officials authorized to assess lands for local improvements were required to notify the comptroller about the improvements, and their assessment of any state lands involved. Notifications had to show the assessments' purpose, authorizing law, and the state lands and amounts for which they were assessed. This series consists of assessment notices (a few redemption notices) for local improvements on state lands. Most improvements are in western or central New York and were for street pavings, gradings, or sewer construction.
