It is the responsibility of the Tax Commissioner to bill, collect, and disburse ad valorem tax* for the State, County, School, and School Bond. The office is audited once a year by both the County and State Auditor.

The types of taxes collected are real (real estate) and personal property (boats, motors, airplanes), business personal property, timber, heavy duty equipment, mobile home, motor vehicle and sanitation.
