§ 2301. Township treasurer.
(a)Appointment.-- The board of commissioners shall appoint a township treasurer, who may be the elected tax collector or an employee of the township, to serve at the pleasure of the board of commissioners. The township treasurer may not be a member of the board of commissioners.
(b)Compensation.-- The board of commissioners shall determine the compensation of the township treasurer. Notwithstanding section 34 of the act of May 25, 1945 (P.L.1050, No.394), known as the Local Tax Collection Law, a township treasurer who is the elected tax collector of the township may receive a salary, compensation or emoluments of office for the treasurer's work.
(c)Deputy.--
(1)The township treasurer shall, within 60 days of the treasurer's appointment, nominate to the board of commissioners a person to be appointed by the board as the deputy treasurer. The board may, subject to the nominated person meeting the bonding qualifications in paragraph (3), appoint the nominated person as the deputy treasurer.
(2)The deputy treasurer shall have the rights and powers and shall perform the duties of the township treasurer if the township treasurer is unable to perform the duties of office due to sickness, absence or inability to act. If the township treasurer is unable to perform the duties of office and has failed to nominate a person for appointment as the deputy treasurer, the board of commissioners may appoint a deputy treasurer. The deputy treasurer shall serve until the township treasurer is again able to perform the duties of the office.
(3)The deputy treasurer shall be bonded for the same amount, and in the same manner under section 2302 (relating to treasurer's and deputy treasurer's bond), as the township treasurer when acting in the capacity of township treasurer. The board of commissioners shall determine the compensation of the deputy treasurer.
