Summary

Gilpin Township tax collector requested raise from 5% to 7% and an added $5 per tax claim; board agreed to research neighboring municipalities' practices and tabled the request until next meetings.

The township received a written request from elected tax collector Sonya Mazak seeking to increase the commission on taxes collected from 5% to 7% and add a $5 fee for taxes turned over to tax claim processes. The collector noted the position has not received cost-of-living increases in several years and that comparable requests are reportedly being sent countywide.

Supervisors said they would compare surrounding municipalities' compensation for tax collectors and deferred action until the February statutory deadline for setting the commission; members agreed to table the matter until they could review comparative data.
