[Ord. No. 1474, § 1, 2-12-2007]
Plymouth Township adopts the provisions of Article XI-D of the
Tax Reform Code of 1971 of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and imposes
a realty transfer tax as authorized under that Article subject to
the rate limitations therein. The tax imposed under this section shall
be at the rate of 1%. For so long as the Colonial School District
shall continue to levy and impose a real estate transfer tax on the
same person or transfer, then the tax levied hereunder shall be limited
to one-half of the rate fixed as to the person or transfer subject
to a real estate transfer tax by both municipal bodies hereunder.
[Ord. No. 1474, § 1, 2-12-2007]
