A.
It is the intent of the Board of Supervisors of Towamencin Township
to fix the salary to be paid to the Tax Collector for the performance
of duties in the collection of all Township real estate and per capita
taxes for any tax collector to be appointed or elected following the
effective date of this article and until an amendment is made to this
article.
B.
The Board of Supervisors of Towamencin Township finds that it is
in the best interests of the Township to have the Tax Collector deputized
by the Township for the collection of both Township and County taxes.
The deputizing of the Township for such purposes will allow for greater
efficiency in the collection of taxes resulting in a financial benefit
to the Township. Towamencin Township requests that the Tax Collector
with the approval of his or her surety and the approval of Montgomery
County deputize the Township, in writing, which shall enable the Township
to continue to receive and collect any and all of the Township and
County taxes in a manner and with like authority as the Tax Collector.
Beginning upon the commencement of the term of any appointed
or elected Tax Collector following the date of this article the salary
for the Township Tax Collector for the collection of real estate and
per capita taxes shall be $2,600 per annum.
