REPORT OF THE TAX COLLECTOR For the Year Ending December 31, 1932


I herewith submit my report as Tax Collector for the year ending December 31, 1932. At this time I wish to call to the attention of the tax payers the law in regard to the collection of taxes, as I believe that the majority of tax payers do not understand clearly the time limit on payment of real estate taxes, therefore I publish for their benefit Chapter 128 of the Acts of 1923, as follows :


If any tax, betterment or special assessment remains unpaid fourteen days after demand therefor, the Collector, in the case of any tar, betterment or special assessment upon real estate. within one year from October first in the year of assessment, and, in case of any OTHER tax, within two years from said October first, shall collect the tax, together with all incidental charges and fees, in the manner provided by law.


The Assessor's commitment to me of taxes, State, County and Town and also Auto Excise Taxes for 1932 is made up as follows :


State and County Tax :


State Tax
