§ acts:saved-40. (9)
9. That all state, county and municipal taxes and assessments shall be levied, assessed
and collected by the officers of such consolidated city in both or all counties in
which the same is located, under the same laws and in the same manner as they were
levied, assessed and collected in such city before such consolidation. All laws and statutes relating to the levying, collection and lien of taxes and
the enforcement thereof, and sale of lands thereunder applicable to such city before
such consolidation, are hereby extended to cover all the territory within such city
after consolidation, any law to the contrary notwithstanding. The lines of former taxing districts, however, shall not be changed so as to interfere
with the levying of county and state taxes. Separate duplicates shall be made for each county, so that the list of property
in one county shall not be intermingled with that of another county. Return of delinquent taxes on real estate shall be made in each county in which
such real estate may lie. Delinquent taxes and assessments, and taxes and assessments made or levied in such
borough or other municipality before such consolidation, shall be collected by the
collector of taxes of such city, who shall also make sale of lands for such purpose
the same as the collector of taxes of such borough or other municipality could have
done if such consolidation had not taken place. The board of equalization of taxes in any county wherein a borough or other municipality
is consolidated with a city in another county, and the board of equalization of taxes
of the county wherein such city is situate, shall act jointly in all matters relating
to taxation in such borough or other municipality consolidated with such city. Notices or petitions of appeal may be filed with the clerk of either of such county
boards.
