The County Council finds that there was established by Act No. 144, Acts and Joint Resolutions of the South Carolina General Assembly, 1933, an appointed position known as the Tax Collector for the county. The County Council finds that the legislation establishing the position of tax collector for the county has been amended by numerous acts of the South Carolina General Assembly. The County Council further finds that the office of tax collector for the county is a position which is not provided for by the general law or the constitution, so that the County Council has jurisdiction to provide for the appointment, term of office, compensation, duties and responsibilities of the tax collector for the county. This subchapter is intended to provide for the appointment, term of office, compensation, duties and responsibilities of the tax collector for the county, and to provide for other matters relating to the position of tax collector for the county, consistent with the provisions of S.C. Code Title 4, Chapter 9.
