This Bill amends provisions of the Charter for the Town of Henlopen Acres relating to the Town Manager and Treasurer. Regarding the Town Manager, this Bill eliminates the provision requiring the Town Manger to provide a bond for the faithful performance of duties. This Bill further removes a requirement that the Town Manager be paid in twelve (12) installments. Regarding the Treasurer, this Bill would require the Treasurer to be a resident Commissioner of the Town. This Bill further permits the Treasurer to delegate responsibilities and eliminates the previously enumerated duties of promptly depositing funds, providing monthly reports to the Commissioners, and preparing a list of delinquent taxables prior to an election. Finally, this Bill removes the provision requiring the Treasurer to provide a bond for the faithful performance of duties, as well as the provision requiring all checks to be countersigned by the Mayor. Also changes from submitting an annual report of financial conditions to submitting a Budget and involves the Mayor rather than the Secretary.

An Act To Amend The Charter Of The Town Of Henlopen Acres Relating To Town Officials.
