Town
Claims
To protect their funds, towns or townships generally establish a regular and orderly procedure for the allowance and payment of claims against them, which must be followed before any claim will be satisfied. The courts may review the decision of boards permitting or disallowing claims against towns or townships.
Claims against the town may be settled or submitted to ARBITRATION at the direction of town supervisors or following a vote at a town meeting.
