New Jersey Statutes, Title: 54, TAXATION

    Chapter 4: Property subject to taxation.

      Section: 54:4-40: Amount required by general tax for state purposes; notification

           The comptroller shall also, on or before February first in each year, transmit to each county treasurer a statement of the amount, if any, necessary to be raised by general taxation for state purposes in such county, which the comptroller shall apportion in the same manner as the school tax, adding thereto any deficiency of the previous year. The county treasurer shall lay the statements before the county board of taxation of his county on or before February tenth in each year, and such board shall apportion the amount required among the taxing districts, as provided in this chapter, charging any deficiency to the deficient taxing districts. The taxing districts shall be liable to make good to the state and county any deficiency arising from the default of their collecting and disbursing officers or otherwise, and the counties shall be liable to make good to the state any deficiency arising from the default of their respective county treasurers, by apportioning it in the next tax among the taxing districts.
