Bill Summary

Relative to the collection of personal property taxes. Revenue.

AI Summary

This bill amends Chapter 60 of the General Laws to establish a lien on personal property for unpaid personal property taxes. The lien will have the force and effect of an unperfected lien under the Uniform Commercial Code (UCC), and can be perfected by the municipal collector filing a financing statement. This allows the collector to use remedies available to holders of secured interests under the UCC to collect the unpaid taxes, in addition to other existing remedies. The bill also allows the collector to assign the tax receivable and lien to other secured parties who pay the balance due.
