Longtime township tax collector Bobby Loftus announces retirement effective January reorganization
Summary
Bobby Loftus, the township official responsible for tax collections, announced she will retire at the January reorganization meeting to allow an orderly transition; she noted health reasons and gave six months’ notice to permit recruitment and training.
During announcements the township tax collector, identified in remarks as Bobby Loftus, told the board she has had recent medical issues and that her family and doctors recommended retirement. She said her official last day will be the January reorganization meeting so the township has time to advertise, interview and appoint a successor and ensure a smooth transition.
Loftus described operational details that will affect residents this year: school tax bills typically mailed July 1 are delayed because the school budget has not been adopted, which shifts discount and penalty dates; she reiterated she will mail bills before a scheduled vacation in mid‑July and asked residents to note the revised schedule.
Board members and fellow staff thanked Loftus for 25 years of service, noting home visits to assist elderly residents and other longstanding duties. The chair and colleagues praised her dedication and wished her well.
Ending: Supervisors publicly thanked Loftus and noted a replacement process will be launched; board staff will handle advertisement and appointment steps over the coming months.
