In school directors, providing for ineligibility for office of school director for delinquent tax obligations.

Introduced·2/21/25
Introduced Text

Pennsylvania HB687 prohibits individuals with delinquent tax obligations from holding the office of school director.

Pennsylvania HB687 amends the Public School Code of 1949 to establish that an individual who is delinquent in a tax obligation is not eligible to hold the office of school director. A delinquent tax obligation is defined as a failure to satisfy a tax obligation for two years or more, with no legal process contesting the tax obligation pending. The bill allows for objections to the candidacy or title of office of individuals who do not meet eligibility requirements. This change applies to candidates and individuals elected to the office of school director after the bill's effective date.
