Commissioner John Stacy emphasizes the importance of establishing a single facility to support the county's anticipated growth. He notes, “It is crucial to develop a centralized space that addresses our community's needs, especially since this initiative is not funded by local taxpayers. The COVID relief grants provided by the federal government, through the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA), offer a unique opportunity to invest in our future. By utilizing these funds, we can create a public facility that enhances service delivery without placing additional burdens on property taxes or requiring local bonds.”

Commissioner Dana Macalik expressed her support for the project, noting, “The development of the annex building reflects a commitment to long-term community investment and innovation. This initiative is in harmony with the Strategic Plan 2050 framework, which aims to enhance government operations while accommodating our expanding county population.”

We're excited to share that our new facility is designed with your comfort and convenience in mind! You'll find it much easier to access our services. For example, we’re committed to reducing wait times for everyone coming to the County Tax Office. Instead of standing in line, you can relax in our comfortable lobby while you wait for your turn. Additionally, we’ve included sit-down desks to provide you with a comfortable space to process your paperwork. The Tax Office will open in the Annex soon.
