§ 21. Duties of receivers of taxes. It shall be the duty of the
receiver of taxes in each town safely to keep the tax and assessment
roll and warrant delivered to him by the board of supervisors until its
return to the county treasurer as herein provided; and to collect all
taxes and assessments levied in the town thereon, and upon any warrants
for that purpose to him directed and delivered, and to perform all other
duties imposed by law, and to that end he shall attend at his office and
at such other places at such times and at such hours as the town board
shall direct; and for the necessary expenses of such attendance at
places other than his office when directed by the town board, the
receiver of taxes shall be reimbursed by the town upon bills to be
audited and paid as are other town charges.
