Grove City Area School District exonerates local tax collectors for unpaid 2025 school taxes
Summary
The board unanimously approved a 2025–26 Tax Exoneration Resolution that names five local tax collectors as exonerated for unpaid 2025 real-estate and per-capita school taxes after filing with county and collection agents; the resolution notes taxpayers remain liable for the taxes.
The Grove City Area School District Board of School Directors on Feb. 9 approved a 2025–26 Tax Exoneration Resolution that names five local tax collectors — Matthew Fischer (Grove City Borough), Starla Lindey (Liberty Township), Elizabeth Mattocks (Pine Township), Christi Cratty (Springfield Township) and Amanda McGhee (Wolf Creek Township) — as exonerated from collection of unpaid 2025 real-estate and per-capita school taxes after those amounts were filed with the Mercer County Courthouse and Sharp Collection by Jan. 31, 2026.
The resolution, moved by Sandra Phipps and seconded by August Hurst, carried 8-0. The minutes record that the action releases the named collectors from collection responsibility but explicitly states that the taxpayers’ responsibility for the taxes is unaffected by the board’s exoneration.
The motion does not alter tax liabilities or the district’s authority to pursue unpaid taxes through the listed county or collection processes; the board’s recorded action is administrative, recognizing the filing by the collectors and releasing them from further collection duties for 2025 as described in the resolution text.
