If any tax collector or tax commissioner fails to submit his account for settlement by April 20 or within such further time, not exceeding four months, as is allowed by the commissioner or, if on examination of the account, defaults are ascertained which are not promptly cured by the tax collector or tax commissioner, the commissioner or the county governing authority shall report such facts to the Governor who, after giving the tax collector or tax commissioner opportunity to be heard (unless the tax collector or tax commissioner absconds or absents himself from the state or otherwise cannot be given notice), shall have the power to suspend him or remove him from office; and the commissioner and the county governing authority shall proceed to cite the delinquent tax collector or tax commissioner and his surety.
