§ 492. Powers, duties, and liabilities; bonds
(a) The powers, duties, and liabilities of the collector, treasurer, prudential committee,
and clerk shall be like those of a town collector, treasurer, board of school directors,
and the school board clerk, respectively.
(b) Before entering upon their duties, the collector and treasurer shall give a bond to
the district conditioned for the faithful performance of their duties, in such sum
as may be required. In lieu of taking a personal bond from a collector or treasurer,
or both, a school district may choose to provide suitable crime insurance covering
the collector or treasurer, or both. If a school district has not provided suitable
crime insurance in lieu of a bond and a collector or treasurer for ten days neglects
to give a bond as required, that office shall be vacant. (Amended 2011, No. 129 (Adj. Sess.), § 22, eff. July 1, 2013; 2013, No. 92 (Adj. Sess.), § 52, eff. Feb. 14, 2014; 2021, No. 166 (Adj. Sess.), § 11, eff. June 1, 2022.)
