Statement. This Preliminary Official Statement does not constitute an offer to sell or the
solicitation of an offer to buy, and there may not be any sale of the Bonds offered by this Preliminary Official Statement, in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to the registration
or qualification under the securities laws of that jurisdiction.
In the opinion of Hawkins Delafield & Wood LLP, Bond Counsel to the Village, under existing statutes and court decisions and assuming
continuing compliance with certain tax certifications described herein, (i) interest on the Bonds is excluded from gross income for Federal
income tax purposes pursuant to Section 103 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code), and (ii) interest on the Bonds
is not treated as a preference item in calculating the alternative minimum tax imposed on individuals and corporations under the Code; such
interest, however, is included in the adjusted current earnings of certain corporations for purposes of calculating the alternative minimum
tax imposed on such corporations. In addition, in the opinion of Bond Counsel to the Village, under existing statutes, interest on the Bonds is
exempt from personal income taxes of New York State and its political subdivisions, including The City of New York. See TAX MATTERS
herein.
The Village WILL designate the Bonds as qualified tax-exempt obligations pursuant to Section 265(b)(3) of the Code.

Authorization and the Refunding Plan for the Series A Refunding Bonds
The Series A Refunding Bonds are issued pursuant to the Constitution and Laws of the State of New York,
including among others, the Village Law and the Local Finance Law and the refunding bond resolution duly
adopted by the Village Board of Trustees on February 3, 2015 (the Refunding Bond Resolution), authorizing
the refunding of all or a part of certain outstanding bonds of the Village issued on various dates to the United
States Department of Agriculture (the USDA). A refunding financial plan has been prepared and is described
below (the Refunding Plan).
The Series A Refunding Bonds are being issued to refund up to $158,000 of the outstanding principal of the
Villages USDA Rural Development Bonds, 1986, which mature in the years 2015 through 2023, inclusive, (the
Refunded 1986 Bonds), up to $72,000 of the outstanding principal of the Villages USDA Rural Development
Bonds, 1991, which mature in the years 2015 to 2026, inclusive (the Refunded 1991 Bonds), up to $108,000
of the outstanding principal of the Villages USDA Water System Bonds, 1996A, which mature in the years
2016 to 2032, inclusive (the Refunded 1996A Bonds), up to $136,000 of the outstanding principal of the
Villages USDA Water System Bonds, 1996B, which mature in the years 2015 to 2034, inclusive (the
Refunded 1996B Bonds) and up to $232,000 of the outstanding principal of the Villages USDA Water
System Bonds, 1996C, which mature in the years 2015 to 2034, inclusive (the Refunded 1996C Bonds and
collectively with the Refunded 1986 Bonds, Refunded 1991 Bonds, Refunded 1996A Bonds and Refunded
1996B Bonds will be referred to as the Refunded Bonds). Under the Refunding Plan, the Refunded Bonds are
to be called and redeemed on March 19, 2015.
The net proceeds of the Refunding Bonds (after payment of the underwriting fee and other costs of issuance
relating to the Refunding Bonds) will be cash proceeds from the sale of the Refunding Bonds, will be placed in
an irrevocable trust fund (the Escrow Fund) to be held by Manufacturers and Traders Trust Company, (the
Escrow Holder) a bank located and authorized to do business in the State, pursuant to the terms of an escrow
contract by and between the Village and the Escrow Holder, dated as of the delivery date of the Refunding
Bonds (the Escrow Contract). The net proceeds so deposited will mature in amounts which, together with the
cash so deposited, will be sufficient to pay the principal of, interest on and applicable redemption premium of
the Refunded Bonds on the date of their redemption. The Refunding Plan requires the Escrow Holder, pursuant
to the refunding bond resolution of the Village and the Escrow Contract, to pay the Refunded Bonds at maturity
or at the earliest date on which the Refunded Bonds may be called for redemption prior to maturity.
The holders of the Refunded Bonds will have a first lien on all investment income from, and maturing principal
of the net proceeds, along with other available monies held in the Escrow Fund. The Escrow Contract shall
terminate upon final payment by the Escrow Holder to the paying agents/fiscal agent for the Refunded Bonds
amounts from the Escrow Fund adequate for the payment, in full, of the Refunded Bonds, including interest and
the redemption premium payable with respect thereto.
The Refunding Plan will permit the Village to realize, as a result of the issuance of the Refunding Bonds,
cumulative dollar and present value debt service savings.
2
Under the Refunding Plan, the Refunded Bonds will continue to be general obligations of the Village. However,
inasmuch as the net proceeds held in the Escrow Fund will be sufficient to meet all required payments of
principal, interest and redemption premium requirements when required in accordance with the Refunding Plan,
it is not anticipated that any other source of payment will be required.

maturity. The Series A Refunding Bonds maturing on or after June 15, 2026 will be subject to redemption prior
to maturity, at the option of the Village, on any date on or after June 15, 2025, in whole or in part, and if in part
in any order of their maturity and in any amount within a maturity (selected by lot within a maturity), at the
redemption price of 100% of the par amount of the Series A Refunding Bonds to be redeemed, plus accrued
interest to the date of redemption.
The Village may select the maturities of the Series A Refunding Bonds to be redeemed prior to maturity and the
amount to be redeemed of each maturity selected, as the Village shall determine to be in the best interest of the
Village at the time of such redemption. If less than all of the Series A Refunding Bonds of any maturity are to
be redeemed prior to maturity, the particular Series A Refunding Bonds of such maturity to be redeemed shall be
selected by the Village by lot in any customary manner of selection as determined by the Village. Notice of
such call for redemption shall be given by mailing such notice to the registered owner not more than sixty (60)
nor less than thirty (30) days prior to such date. Notice of redemption having been given as aforesaid, the Series
A Refunding Bonds so called for redemption shall, on the date of redemption set forth in such call for
redemption, become due and payable, together with accrued interest to such redemption date, and interest shall
cease to be paid thereon after such redemption date.
The Series B Bonds are not subject to optional redemption prior to maturity.
Nature of Obligation
The Bonds when duly issued and paid for will constitute a contract between the Village and the holder thereof.
The Bonds will be general obligations of the Village and will contain a pledge of the faith and credit of the
Village for the payment of the principal thereof and the interest thereon. For the payment of such principal of
and interest on the Bonds, the Village has the power and statutory authorization to levy ad valorem taxes on all
taxable real property in the Village, subject to certain statutory limitations imposed by the Tax Levy Limit Law.
(See Tax Levy Limit Law herein.)
Under the Constitution of the State, the Village is required to pledge its faith and credit for the payment of the
principal of and interest on the Bonds, and the State is specifically precluded from restricting the power of the
Village to levy taxes on real estate for the payment of interest on or principal of indebtedness theretofore
contracted. However, the Tax Levy Limit Law imposes a statutory limitation on the Villages power to increase
its annual tax levy. As a result, the power of the Village to levy real estate taxes on all the taxable real property
within the Village is subject to statutory limitations set forth in Tax Levy Limit Law, unless the Village complies
with certain procedural requirements to permit the Village to levy certain year-to-year increases in real property
taxes. (See Tax Levy Limit Law herein.)
Book-Entry-Only System
The Depository Trust Company (DTC), New York, New York, will act as securities depository for the Bonds.
The Bonds will be issued as fully-registered bonds registered in the name of Cede & Co. (DTCs partnership
nominee) or such other name as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. One fully-registered
bond certificate will be issued for each maturity of each series of the Bonds in the aggregate principal amount of
such maturity and will be deposited with DTC.
DTC, the worlds largest depository, is a limited-purpose trust company organized under the New York Banking
Law, a banking organization within the meaning of the New York Banking Law, a member of the Federal
Reserve System, a clearing corporation within the meaning of the New York Uniform Commercial Code, and
a clearing agency registered pursuant to the provisions of Section 17A of the Securities Exchange Act of
6
1934. DTC holds and provides asset servicing for over 3.5 million issues of U.S. and non-U.S. equity issues,
corporate and municipal debt issues, and money market instruments (from over 100 countries) that DTCs
participants (Direct Participants) deposit with DTC. DTC also facilitates the post-trade settlement among
Direct Participants of sales and other securities transactions in deposited securities, through electronic
computerized book-entry transfers and pledges between Direct Participants accounts. This eliminates the need
for physical movement of securities certificates. Direct Participants include both U.S. and non-U.S. securities
brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, clearing corporations, and certain other organizations. DTC is a
wholly-owned subsidiary of The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC). DTCC is the holding
company for DTC, National Securities Clearing Corporation and Fixed Income Clearing Corporation, all of
which are registered clearing agencies. DTCC is owned by the users of its regulated subsidiaries. Access to the
DTC system is also available to others such as both U.S. and non-U.S. securities brokers and dealers, banks,
trust companies, and clearing corporations that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a Direct
Participant, either directly or indirectly (Indirect Participants). The DTC Rules applicable to its Participants
are on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission. More information about DTC can be found at
www.dtcc.com and www.dtc.org.
Purchases of the Bonds under the DTC system must be made by or through Direct Participants, which will
receive a credit for the Bonds on DTCs records. The ownership interest of each actual purchaser of each bond
(Beneficial Owner) is in turn to be recorded on the Direct and Indirect Participants records. Beneficial
Owners will not receive written confirmation from DTC of their purchase. Beneficial Owners are, however,
expected to receive written confirmations providing details of the transaction, as well as periodic statements of
their holdings, from the Direct or Indirect Participant through which the Beneficial Owner entered into the
transaction. Transfers of ownership interests in the Bonds are to be accomplished by entries made on the books
of Direct and Indirect Participants acting on behalf of Beneficial Owners. Beneficial Owners will not receive
certificates representing their ownership interests in the Bonds, except in the event that use of the book-entry
system for the Bonds is discontinued.
To facilitate subsequent transfers, all Bonds deposited by Direct Participants with DTC are registered in the
name of DTCs partnership nominee, Cede & Co., or such other name as may be requested by an authorized
representative of DTC. The deposit of the Bonds with DTC and their registration in the name of Cede & Co. or
such other DTC nominee do not effect any change in beneficial ownership. DTC has no knowledge of the
actual Beneficial Owners of the Bonds; DTCs records reflect only the identity of the Direct Participants to
whose accounts such Bonds are credited, which may or may not be the Beneficial Owners. The Direct and
Indirect Participants will remain responsible for keeping account of their holdings on behalf of their customers.
Conveyance of notices and other communications by DTC to Direct Participants, by Direct Participants to
Indirect Participants, and by Direct Participants and Indirect Participants to Beneficial Owners will be governed
by arrangements among them, subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time
to time.
Redemption notices shall be sent to DTC. If less than all of the securities within an issue are being redeemed,
DTCs practice is to determine by lot the amount of the interest of each Direct Participant in such issue to be
redeemed.
Neither DTC nor Cede & Co. (nor any other DTC nominee) will consent or vote with respect to securities unless
authorized by a Direct Participant in accordance with DTCs MMI Procedures. Under its usual procedures,
DTC mails an Omnibus Proxy to the issuer as soon as possible after the record date. The Omnibus Proxy
assigns Cede & Co.s consenting or voting rights to those Direct Participants to whose accounts the securities
are credited on the record date (identified in a listing attached to the Omnibus Proxy).
Principal and interest payments on the Bonds will be made to Cede & Co., or such other nominee as may be
requested by an authorized representative of DTC. DTCs practice is to credit Direct Participants accounts
upon DTCs receipt of funds and corresponding detail information from the issuer, on the payable date in
accordance with their respective holdings shown on DTCs records. Payments by Participants to Beneficial
Owners will be governed by standing instructions and customary practices, as is the case with securities held for
the accounts of customers in bearer form or registered in street name, and will be the responsibility of such
Participant and not of DTC or the Village, subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as may be in effect
7
from time to time. Payment of principal and interest payments to Cede & Co. (or such other nominee as may be
requested by an authorized representative of DTC) is the responsibility of the Village, disbursement of such
payments to Direct Participants will be the responsibility of DTC, and disbursement of such payments to the
Beneficial Owners will be the responsibility of Direct and Indirect Participants.
DTC may discontinue providing its services as depository with respect to the Bonds at any time by giving
reasonable notice to the Village. Under such circumstances, in the event that a successor depository is not
obtained, bond certificates are required to be printed and delivered.
The Village may decide to discontinue use of the system of book-entry-only transfers through DTC (or a
successor securities depository). In that event, bond certificates will be printed and delivered to DTC.
The information in this section concerning DTC and DTCs book-entry system has been obtained from sources
that the Village believes to be reliable, but the Village takes no responsibility for the accuracy thereof.

LITIGATION
Various notices of claim have been filed with the Village. The allegations set forth in the claims relate to
various circumstances including personal injury, condemnation proceedings, civil rights violations and/or
administrative determinations by Village officials. Certain claims assert money damages while others seek a
specific action or forbearance on the part of the Village.
In the opinion of the Attorney for the Village, the resolution of such various claims presently pending against the
Village will not have a material adverse effect on the Village's financial position. Such matters are
generally either of immaterial amount or adequately covered by budgetary appropriations or insurance. Pursuant
to the Local Finance Law, the Village is authorized to issue debt to finance judgments and claims, if necessary.
TAX MATTERS
Opinion of Bond Counsel
In the opinion of Hawkins Delafield & Wood LLP, Bond Counsel to the Village, under existing statutes and
court decisions and assuming continuing compliance with certain tax certifications described herein, (i) interest
on the Bonds is excluded from gross income for Federal income tax purposes pursuant to Section 103 of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code), and (ii) interest on the Bonds is not treated as a
preference item in calculating the alternative minimum tax imposed on individuals and corporations under the
Code; such interest, however, is included in the adjusted current earnings of certain corporations for purposes of
calculating the alternative minimum tax imposed on such corporations. The Tax Certificate of the Village (the
Tax Certificate), which will be delivered concurrently with the delivery of the Bonds will contain provisions
and procedures relating to compliance with applicable requirements of the Code. In rendering its opinion, Bond
Counsel has relied on certain representations, certifications of fact, and statements of reasonable expectations
made by the Village in connection with the Bonds, and Bond Counsel has assumed compliance by the Village
with certain ongoing provisions and procedures set forth in the Tax Certificate relating to compliance with
applicable requirements of the Code to assure the exclusion of interest on the Bonds from gross income under
Section 103 of the Code.
In addition, in the opinion of Bond Counsel to the Village, under existing statutes, interest on the Bonds is
exempt from personal income taxes of New York State and its political subdivisions, including The City of New
York.
Bond Counsel expresses no opinion regarding any other Federal or state tax consequences with respect to the
Bonds. Bond Counsel renders its opinion under existing statutes and court decisions as of the issue date, and
assumes no obligation to update, revise or supplement its opinion after the issue date to reflect any action
hereafter taken or not taken, or any facts or circumstances that may hereafter come to its attention, or changes in
law or in interpretations thereof that may hereafter occur, or for any other reason. Bond Counsel expresses no
opinion on the effect of any action hereafter taken or not taken in reliance upon an opinion of other counsel on
the exclusion from gross income for Federal income tax purposes of interest on the Bonds, or under state and
local tax law.
companies, individual recipients of Social Security and railroad retirement benefits, individuals otherwise
eligible for the earned income tax credit, and taxpayers deemed to have incurred or continued indebtedness to
purchase or carry obligations the interest on which is excluded from gross income for Federal income tax
purposes. Interest on the Bonds may be taken into account in determining the tax liability of foreign
corporations subject to the branch profits tax imposed by Section 884 of the Code.
Bond Premium
In general, if an owner acquires a Bond for a purchase price (excluding accrued interest) or otherwise at a tax
basis that reflects a premium over the sum of all amounts payable on the Bond after the acquisition date
(excluding certain qualified stated interest that is unconditionally payable at least annually at prescribed rates),
that premium constitutes bond premium on that Bond (a Premium Bond). In general, under Section 171 of
the Code, an owner of a Premium Bond must amortize the bond premium over the remaining term of the
Premium Bond, based on the owners yield over the remaining term of the Premium Bond, determined based on
constant yield principles (in certain cases involving a Premium Bond callable prior to its stated maturity date, the
amortization period and yield may be required to be determined on the basis of an earlier call date that results in
the lowest yield on such bond). An owner of a Premium Bond must amortize the bond premium by offsetting
the qualified stated interest allocable to each interest accrual period under the owners regular method of
accounting against the bond premium allocable to that period. In the case of a tax-exempt Premium Bond, if the
bond premium allocable to an accrual period exceeds the qualified stated interest allocable to that accrual period,
the excess is a nondeductible loss. Under certain circumstances, the owner of a Premium Bond may realize a
taxable gain upon disposition of the Premium Bond even though it is sold or redeemed for an amount less than
or equal to the owners original acquisition cost. Owners of any Premium Bond should consult their own tax
advisors regarding the treatment of bond premium for Federal income tax purposes, including various special
rules relating thereto, and state and local tax consequences, in connection with the acquisition, ownership,
amortization of bond premium on, sale, exchange, or other disposition of Premium Bonds.
of exempt recipients. A recipient not otherwise exempt from information reporting who fails to satisfy the
information reporting requirements will be subject to backup withholding, which means that the payor is
required to deduct and withhold a tax from the interest payment, calculated in the manner set forth in the Code.
For the foregoing purpose, a payor generally refers to the person or entity from whom a recipient receives its
payments of interest or who collects such payments on behalf of the recipient.
If an owner purchasing a Bond through a brokerage account has executed a Form W-9 in connection with the
establishment of such account, as generally can be expected, no backup withholding should occur. In any event,
backup withholding does not affect the excludability of the interest on the Bonds from gross income for Federal
income tax purposes. Any amounts withheld pursuant to backup withholding would be allowed as a refund or a
credit against the owners Federal income tax once the required information is furnished to the Internal Revenue
Service.
Miscellaneous
Tax legislation, administrative actions taken by tax authorities, or court decisions, whether at the Federal or state
level, may adversely affect the tax-exempt status of interest on the Bonds under Federal or state law or otherwise
prevent beneficial owners of the Bonds from realizing the full current benefit of the tax status of such interest. In
addition, such legislation or actions (whether currently proposed, proposed in the future, or enacted) and such
decisions could affect the market price or marketability of the Bonds. For example, the Fiscal Year 2015 Budget
proposed by the Obama Administration recommends a 28% limitation on all itemized deductions, as well as
other tax benefits including tax-exempt interest. The net effect of such a proposal, had it been enacted into
law, would be that an owner of a tax-exempt bond with a marginal tax rate in excess of 28% would pay some
amount of Federal income tax with respect to the interest on such tax-exempt obligation regardless of issue date.
Prospective purchasers of the Bonds should consult their own tax advisors regarding the foregoing matters.
Legal Matters
Legal matters incident to the authorization, issuance and sale of the Bonds will be subject to the final approving
opinions of the law firm of Hawkins Delafield & Wood LLP, Bond Counsel to the Village with respect to the
Bonds, which will be available at the time of delivery of the Bonds. Such opinions will be to the effect that the
Bonds are valid and legally binding general obligations of the Village for which the Village has validly pledged
its faith and credit and, unless paid from other sources, all the taxable real property within the Village is subject
to the levy of ad valorem real estate taxes to pay the Bonds and interest thereon, subject to the limitations
imposed by the Tax Levy Limit Law. (See Tax Levy Limit Law herein.) The opinions shall also discuss the
treatment of interest on the Bonds under applicable tax law, as further described under the heading Tax
Matters herein. Said opinions shall also contain further statements to the effect that (a) the enforceability of
rights or remedies with respect to the Bonds may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, or other laws affecting
creditors' rights or remedies heretofore or hereafter enacted, and (b) said law firm gives no assurances as to the
adequacy, sufficiency or completeness of the Official Statement of the Village relating to the Bonds, or any
11
proceedings, reports, correspondence, financial statements or other documents, containing financial or other
information relative to the Bonds which have been or may be furnished or disclosed to purchasers of the Bonds.

APPENDIX A
THE VILLAGE
THE VILLAGE
General Information
The Village of Kiryas Joel is located in the Town of Monroe in Orange County, New York. The estimated
population of the Village was 20,176 in 2012 according to the U.S Census Bureau. The Village is primarily
residential in nature and is located approximately 50 miles north of New York City.
Form of Government
The Village was incorporated in 1977 as a municipal corporation by the State pursuant to the Village Law and is
vested with such powers and has the responsibilities inherent in the operation of a municipal government, including
the adoption of rules and regulations to govern its affairs. In addition, the Village may tax real property situated in
its boundaries and incur debt subject to the provisions of the States Local Finance Law. There is one independent
school district operating in the Village that possesses the same powers with respect to taxation and debt issuance.
Village residents also pay real property taxes to the Town and the County to support programs conducted by these
two governmental entities.
Government operations of the Village are subject to the provisions of the State Constitution and various statutes
affecting Village governments including the Village Law, the General Municipal Law and the Local Finance Law.
Real property assessment, collection, and enforcement procedures are determined by the Real Property Tax Law.
A-1
Employees
The Village employs 18 full-time and 66 part-time persons, none of whom are represented by unions.
A-2
The New York State Retirement System has advised the Village that municipalities can elect to make employer
contribution payments in the December or the following February, as required. If such payments are made in the
December prior to the scheduled payment date in February, such payments may be made at a discount amount.
Due to significant capital market declines in 2008 and 2009, the State's Retirement System portfolio has experienced
negative investment performance and severe downward trends in market earnings. As a result of the foregoing, the
employer contribution rate for the States Retirement System continues to be higher than the minimum contribution
rate established by applicable law. The State calculates contribution amounts based upon a five-year rolling average.
As a result, contribution rates are expected to remain higher than the minimum contribution rates set by applicable
law in the near-term. To mitigate the expected increases in the employer contribution rate, legislation has been
enacted that would permit local governments and school districts to borrow a portion of their required payments
from the State pension plan at an interest rate of 5%. The new legislation also requires those local governments and
school districts, who decide to amortize their pension obligations pursuant to the new law, to establish reserve
accounts to fund payment increases that are a result of fluctuations in pension plan performance.
Beginning July 1, 2013, a voluntary defined contribution plan option will be made available to all unrepresented
employees of New York State public employers hired on or after that date, and who earn $75,000 or more on an
annual basis.
In Spring 2013, the State and ERS approved a Stable Contribution Option (SCO), which modified its existing
SCO adopted in 2010, that gives municipalities the ability to better manage the spikes in Actuarially Required
Contribution rates (ARCs). The plan allows municipalities to pay the SCO amount in lieu of the ARC amount.
The Village did not amortize any portion of its current pension contribution through the SCO and does not expect to
amortize any portion of future pension contributions through the SCO.
A-3
FINANCIAL FACTORS
Budgetary Procedure
The Village Treasurer is the budget officer of the Village and submits the tentative budget for the next fiscal year to
the Board on or before March 20 of each year. Public hearings on the budget are held on or before April 15.
Members of the public may express their views on the budget, but there is no provision for a formal vote. Following
the public hearing, and on or before May 1, the Board meets to adopt the final budget.
Budgetary control is the responsibility of the Village Treasurer, Village Administrator and Village Board. Formal
integration of the budget with the accounting system is used during the year as a management tool for all
governmental funds.
Chapter 97 of the Laws of 2011 (the Tax Levy Limit Law) imposes a limitation on increases in the real property
tax levy of the Village, subject to certain exceptions outlined in the new law. All budgets of the Village adopted in
accordance with the procedure discussed herein must comply with the requirements of the new law. (See Tax Levy
Limit Law, herein.)
Independent Audits
The Village retained the firm Aron E. Muller, Certified Public Accountants to audit its financial statements for the
fiscal years ended May 31, 2010 through 2014. In addition, the Village is subject to audit by the State Comptroller to
review compliance with legal requirements and the rules and regulations established by the State. The Village was
last audited by the State in 2010.
The Village utilizes fund accounting to record and report its various service activities. A fund represents both legal
and an accounting entity which segregates the transactions of specific programs in accordance with special
regulations, restrictions or limitations.
The Village has two basic fund categories (Governmental Funds and Fiduciary Funds) and five generic fund types.
Governmental Funds are those through which most governmental functions of the Village are financed and include
two fund types, as follows. The General Fund is the principal operating fund and includes all operations not
required to be recorded in other funds. The Village also maintains a Water Fund and a Sewer Fund. The Capital
Projects Fund accounts for financial resources to be used for the acquisition or construction of major capital
facilities. The other fund category, Fiduciary Funds, is used to account for assets held by the Village in a trustee or
custodial capacity and includes a Trust and Agency Fund.
Basis of Accounting
The Village maintains its records and reports on the modified accrual basis of accounting for recording transactions
in all governmental funds. Under this method, (1) revenues are recorded when received in cash except that for
revenues which are material and susceptible to accrual (measurable and available to finance the current years
A-4
operations) which are recorded when earned, and (2) expenditures, other than retirement plan contributions, vacation
and sick pay, and accrued interest are recorded at the time liabilities are incurred.

State Aid
The Village receives financial assistance from the State. If the State should experience difficulty in borrowing funds
in anticipation of the receipt of State taxes in order to pay State aid to municipalities and school districts in the State,
including the Village, in this year or future years, the Village may be affected by a delay in the receipt of State aid
until sufficient State taxes have been received by the State to make State aid payments. Additionally, if the State
should not adopt its budget in a timely manner, municipalities and school districts in the State, including the Village,
may be affected by a delay in the payment of State aid.
The State is not constitutionally obligated to maintain or continue State aid to the Village. No assurance can be
given that present State aid levels will be maintained in the future. State budgetary restrictions which eliminate or
substantially reduce State aid could have an adverse affect upon the Village, requiring either a counterbalancing
increase in revenues from other sources to the extent available, or a curtailment of expenditures.
Due to the current fiscal crisis occurring in the State and nation, there may be reductions in State aid to local
governments and school districts, including the Village, in future fiscal years. State aid accounts for a portion of the
Villages 2014-2015 budgeted revenues (6.01%). The Village does not believe future State aid reductions will have
a material adverse effect on the Village.
The following table sets forth total general fund revenues and State aid revenues received for each of the last five
audited fiscal years and the amount budgeted for the current fiscal year.

retirement system contributions and tort judgments payable by the Village. The Village Board may adopt a budget
that exceeds the tax levy limit for the coming fiscal year, only if the Village Board first enacts, by a vote of at least
sixty percent of the total voting power of the governing board of the Village, a local law to override such limit for
such coming fiscal year.
The Tax Levy Limit Law does not contain an exception from the levy limitation for the payment of debt service on
either outstanding general obligation bonds or notes of the Village or such indebtedness incurred after the effective
date of the Tax Levy Limit Law. As such, there can be no assurances that the Tax Levy Limit Law will not come
under legal challenge for violating (i) Article VIII, Section 12 of the State Constitution for not providing an
exception for debt service on obligations issued prior to the enactment of the Tax Levy Limit Law, (ii) Article VIII,
Section 10 of the State Constitution by effectively eliminating the exception for debt service to general real estate
tax limitations, and (iii) Article VIII, Section 2 of the State Constitution by limiting the pledge of its faith and credit
by a municipality or school district for the payment of debt service on obligations issued by such municipality or
school district.
VILLAGE INDEBTEDNESS
Constitutional and Statutory Requirements
The New York State Constitution limits the power of the Village (and other municipalities and school districts of the
State) to issue obligations and to otherwise contract indebtedness. Such constitutional limitations include the
following, in summary form, and are generally applicable to the Bonds.
Purpose and Pledge. The Village shall not give or loan any money or property to or in aid of any individual or
private corporation or private undertaking or give or loan its credit to or in aid of any of the foregoing or any public
corporation.
The Village may contract indebtedness only for a Village purpose and shall pledge its faith and credit for the
payment of principal of and interest thereon.
Payment and Maturity. Except for certain short-term indebtedness contracted in anticipation of taxes, or to be paid
within three fiscal years, indebtedness shall be paid in annual installments commencing no later than two years after
the date such indebtedness shall have been contracted and ending no later than the expiration of the period of
probable usefulness of the object or purpose (as determined by statute) or, in the alternative, the weighted average
period of probable usefulness of the several purposes for which it is contracted, unless the Village determines to
issue debt amortized on the basis of substantially level or declining annual debt service. The Village is required to
provide an annual appropriation for the payment of interest due during the year on its indebtedness and for the
amounts required in such year for amortization and redemption of its serial bonds and bond anticipation notes.
General. The Village is further subject to constitutional limitation by the general constitutionally imposed duty of
the State Legislature to restrict the power of taxation and contracting indebtedness to prevent abuses in the exercise
of such powers. As has been noted under Nature of Obligation, the State Legislature is prohibited by a specific
constitutional provision from restricting the power of the Village to levy taxes on real estate for the payment of
interest on or principal of indebtedness theretofore contracted. However, the Tax Levy Limit Law imposes a
statutory limitation on the Villages power to increase its annual tax levy, unless the Village complies with certain
procedural requirements to permit the Village to levy certain year-to-year increases in real property taxes. (See Tax
Levy Limit Law herein).
Debt Limit. The Village has the power to contract indebtedness for any Village purpose so long as the principal
amount thereof shall not exceed seven per centum of the most recent five-year average full valuation of taxable real
estate of the Village and subject to certain enumerated exclusions and deductions such as water and certain sewer
facilities and cash appropriations for current debt service. The constitutional method for determining full valuation
is by taking the assessed valuation of taxable real estate for the last completed assessment roll and applying thereto
the final equalization rate as determined by the State Board of Real Property Services. The State Legislature is
A-9
required to prescribe the manner by which such rate shall be determined. The average full valuation is determined
by taking the sum of full valuations of such last completed assessment roll and the four preceding assessment rolls,
and dividing such sum by five.
There is no constitutional limitation on the amount that may be raised by the Village by tax on real estate in any
fiscal year to pay principal of and interest on all indebtedness. However, the Tax Levy Limit Law imposes a
statutory limitation on the power of the Village to increase its annual tax levy. The amount of such increases is
limited by the formulas set forth in the Tax Levy Limit Law. (See Tax Levy Limit Law herein).
Statutory Procedure
In general, the State Legislature has authorized the power and procedure for the Village to borrow and incur
indebtedness subject, of course, to the constitutional provisions set forth above. The power to spend money,
however, generally derives from other law, including the Village Law and the General Municipal Law.
Pursuant to the Local Finance Law, the Village authorizes the incurrence of indebtedness, including bonds and bond
anticipation notes issued in anticipation of such bonds, by the adoption of a resolution, approved by at least twothirds of the members of the Village Board, the finance board of the Village. Certain such resolutions may be
subject to permissive referendum, or may be submitted to the Village voters at the discretion and (3/5) three-fifths
vote of the Village Board.
The Local Finance Law also provides for a twenty-day statute of limitations after publication of a bond resolution
(in summary or in full), together with a statutory notice which, in effect, estops thereafter legal challenges to the
validity of obligations authorized by such bond resolution except for alleged constitutional violations. The Village
is in the process of complying with such procedures for the validation of the bond resolutions adopted in connection
with the issuance of each series of the Bonds.
Each bond resolution usually authorizes the construction, acquisition or installation of the object or purpose to be
financed, sets forth the plan of financing and specifies the maximum maturity of the bonds subject to the legal
(Constitution, Local Finance Law and case law) restrictions relating to the period of probable usefulness with
respect thereto.
Each bond resolution also authorizes the issuance of bond anticipation notes prior to the issuance of serial bonds.
Statutory law in New York permits notes to be renewed each year provided that principal is amortized and provided
that such renewals do not (with certain exceptions) extend more than five years beyond the original date of
borrowing. However, notes issued in anticipation of the sale of serial bonds for assessable improvements are not
subject to such five year limit and may be renewed subject to annual reductions of principal for the entire period of
probable usefulness of the purpose for which such notes were originally issued. (See Payment and Maturity under
Constitutional and Statutory Requirements.)
In addition, under each bond resolution, the Village Board may delegate the power to issue and sell bonds and notes
to the Village Treasurer, the chief fiscal officer of the Village.
In general, the Local Finance Law contains similar provisions providing the Village with power to issue general
obligation revenue anticipation notes, tax anticipation notes, capital notes, deficiency notes and budget notes.
general rule, property and funds of a municipal corporation serving the public welfare and interest have not been
judicially subject to execution or attachment to satisfy a judgment, although judicial mandates have been issued to
officials to appropriate and pay judgments out of current funds or the proceeds of a tax levy.
Remedies for enforcement of payment are not expressly included in the Villages contract with holders of its bonds
and notes, although any permanent repeal by statute or constitutional amendment of a Bondholders remedial right
to judicial enforcement of the contract should, in the opinion of Bond Counsel, be held unconstitutional.
The State has consented that any municipality in the State may file a petition with any United States district court or
court of bankruptcy under any provision of the laws of the United States, now or hereafter in effect for the
composition or adjustment of municipal indebtedness. Subject to such State consent, under the United States
Constitution, Congress has jurisdiction over such matters and has enacted amendments to the existing Federal
bankruptcy statute, generally to the effect and with the purpose of affording municipal corporations, under certain
circumstances, with easier access to judicially approved adjustment of debts including judicial control over
identifiable and unidentifiable creditors.
In recent times, certain events and legislation affecting remedies on default have resulted in litigation. While courts
of the final jurisdiction have upheld and sustained the rights of noteholders and bondholders, such courts might hold
that future events including financial crises as they may occur in the State and in municipalities of the State, require
the exercise by the State of its emergency and police powers to assure the continuation of essential public services.
