   The Manager’s Office is responsible for the day-to-day operations of Indiana Borough, coordinating the efforts of the other Departments.  The Borough Manager also acts as Secretary for Borough Council, retains all municipal records, and serves as Treasurer for Borough funds. The Manager’s Office negotiates construction and service contracts with vendors, handles personnel issues, manages insurance and employee benefit programs, and deals with local ordinances, legal issues, and other business affairs of the Borough. The Borough Manager is assisted by the Solicitor, the Assistant Treasurer, and a Recording Secretary, who keeps minutes of all Council meetings.

   The Finance Office accounts for all Borough receipts and expenditures, including payroll, accounting, sewer billing, parking tickets, Municipal Services Tax payments, accounts receivable, and accounts payable. The Finance Department also records and deposits revenue from the elected Real Estate Tax Collector and the appointed agency for collection of Earned Income Taxes.

   The Assistant Treasurer, who reports to the Borough Manager, supervises operations of the Finance Office, which includes, Sewer Billing/Accounting Clerks, Municipal Services Tax Clerk, and the many other functions within this critical office.
