The County Commissioners of Allegany County are hereby authorized,
empowered and directed to levy annually against all assessable real

approved by the County Commissioners and the County Attorney in a

so received, the Treasurer of the LaVale Volunteer Rescue Squad, Inc.,
its successor or successors shall pay all proper costs, expenses,

and collected in the next year's taxes, provided that the rate shall
not be in excess of that mentioned above.
