Session Laws

Whereas, The deferred operation of this act would tend to defeat its purpose, which is to immediately authorize the use of facsimile signatures on warrants issued by tax collectors in cities and towns, therefore it is hereby declared to be an emergency law, necessary for the immediate preservation of the public convenience.

Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives in General Court assembled, and by the authority of the same, as follows:

The first paragraph of section 29 of chapter 60 of the General Laws, as appearing in section 4 of chapter 64 of the acts of 1980, is hereby amended by adding the following sentence:- A warrant issued under this section may be signed by the collector or his deputy, and a facsimile of the signature of the collector shall have the same validity as his written signature.
