ANNUAL REPORT


Report of the Tax Collector-1961


December 30, 1961


To the Citizens of the Town of Leicester :


I herewith submit the Financial report of the Collector of Taxes.


Collections for the year 1961 were normal. All unpaid Motor Vehicle Excises through 1960 have been sent to the Registry of Motor Vehicles for cancellation of plates, so it is expected that in early 1962 the balance of the Excise taxes will decrease considerably.
