These are notices of assessment and related letters, bills, and other documentation charging the cost of cutting brush along state roads within town boundaries. Such assessments were authorized by section 55 of the Highway Law. Chapter 648 of the Laws of 1907 (section 53A) provided that owners "cut and remove noxious weeds and brush" growing within the bounds of the highway fronting privately owned or occupied lands. Unless cut and removed, the Commissioner of Highways would do the work and assess the cost against the owner.
