NEW SECURITY MEASURES MAY IMPACT RESIDENTS WITHOUT RIGHT ID

Beginning October 1, travelers may be impacted by the need for more security-compliant ID.  This new federal standard, “REAL ID”, is a security measure that sets a higher standard for identification.  Without the proper ID, an individual might not be able to board an airplane or enter some federal facilities.  For some, this might mean getting a new driver’s license or state ID.  A "REAL ID" is considered a passport or an enhanced driver’s license.

Summer taxes were due September 16, 2019.  September 17, 2019, 1% interest was added and 1% more every month thereafter.  Winter tax bills are mailed out December 1, 2019. 

We accept credit/debit payments for property taxes only.  Available during office hours or by appointment.  There is a 3% fee added.
