§755. Bond

The municipal officers shall require each tax collector to give a corporate surety bond for the faithful discharge of his duty, to the inhabitants of the municipality, in the sum, and with such sureties as the municipal officers approve. The tax collector may furnish a bond signed by individuals if such individuals submit to the municipal officers a detailed sworn statement as to their personal financial ability, which shall be found acceptable by the municipal officers.   [PL 1973, c. 695, §18 (RPR).]
Such bond shall, after its approval and acceptance, be recorded by the clerk in the municipal records, and such record shall be prima facie evidence of the contents of such bond, but a failure to so record shall be no defense in any action upon such bond.   [PL 1973, c. 695, §18 (RPR).]
