What does someone have to do to get a marriage license?
A couple who intends to be married in New York State must apply together in person for a marriage license to any town or city clerk in the state. Each applicant must furnish two forms of identification when applying. The following documents are acceptable: driver’s license, certified birth certificate, passport, or baptismal record. If one of the parties are not a citizen of the United States, the following identification will be accepted: passport, green card, USA alien card, work permit or naturalization papers. If either or both of the applicants were previously married the following documented proof is accepted: Only the original or certified copy of the Decree of Divorce for each divorce is accepted. The marriage ceremony may not occur within twenty-four (24) hours from the exact time that the license is issued and the document is then valid for sixty (60) days after the twenty-four hour waiting period. The fee for a marriage license is $40.00.
What do I need to license my dog?
Before a license can be obtained or renewed, a current rabies certificate must be proven. The Albany County Department of Health requires all dogs four months of age or older to be vaccinated for rabies. In addition, if the dog has been neutered or spayed, a certificate acknowledging the procedure must be presented in order to be eligible for a reduced license fee. Seniors (65 years of age or over) are eligible to have the Town’s local fee waived, which reduces the annual renewal fee by $3.00.
The break down for dog licensing fees is as follows:
| Type of dog |
Normal Rate |
Senior
Rate |
Neutered Male (with
certificate or affidavit) |
$5.50 |
$2.50 |
| Spayed Female (with certificate or affidavit) |
$5.50 |
$2.50 |
| Unneutered Male |
$13.50 |
$10.50 |
| Unspayed Female |
$13.50 |
$10.50 |
The Town Clerk’s Office processes all new dog licenses and collects renewal fees. The actual annual renewal notices for a dog license is sent out on a monthly basis by the New York State Department of Agriculture and Markets. Dog owners who do not respond to the annual notice will be contacted by the Town of Wilton Dog Control Officer by mail. The owner if he or she does not respond can be ticketed and /or fined for not complying with the Town’s ordinances.
