Subject: | Option for Counties to Hire Law Firm as Solicitor |
In the near future I plan to introduce legislation to amend sections of the County Code to provide third- through eighth- class counties the option of contracting with a law firm to serve as a solicitor. Current laws in the County Code only allow counties to hire or appoint an individual to serve as their solicitor. This bill proposes the option of using a law firm to fulfill this role to boards of commissioners as well as the row offices of controller, coroner, recorder of deeds, register of wills, sheriff and treasurer. Thank you in advance for your consideration of this proposal. |
Introduced as HB1503
