An Act authorizing the town of Saugus to designate a check-off box on its tax bills for the Saugus Veteran's Relief Fund.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives in General Court assembled, and by the authority of the same, as follows:
The Town of Saugus may, subject to the approval of the commissioner of revenue designate a place on its municipal bills, or the motor vehicle excise tax bills, or mail with such tax bills a separate form whereby taxpayers of the town can voluntarily check off, donate, and pledge an amount of money which shall increase the amount already due and which shall be paid over to the Saugus Veterans Relief Fund.
The purpose of this Veterans Relief Fund is for the support of Saugus veterans and dependents in need of immediate assistance to include commercial food cars and/or heating and oil assistance; such recipients' status as veterans or their dependents, and their need, will be determined by the Town's Veterans Services Department.
