N.Y. Village Law Section 5-514
Limitation of tax levy

I. The amount which may be raised by general village tax on real estate in any fiscal year for village purposes, shall be the same amount as a village may raise under the provisions of article eight of the constitution.

2.

If any joint indebtedness described in title one-A of article two of the local finance law is allocated and apportioned, or is excluded, under or pursuant to such title or any other provision of law for the purpose of determining the debt-contracting power of a county, city, town, village or school district, such allocation and apportionment, or exclusion, shall not limit the amount to be raised in any village outside the limitations applicable to villages set forth in article eight of the constitution to provide for the interest on and the principal of any greater proportionate share of such debt service which the village has agreed or is required to provide. The total of the amounts which may be so raised by all participating public corporations outside any limitation imposed by or pursuant to article eight of the constitution to provide for their respective portions of any payment of principal or of interest on joint indebtedness shall not exceed the full amount required to be provided by all of such participants to make any such payment.
