County tax bill seeks to free auditors from liability
A proposed bill moves to empower county auditors to list and collect taxes on previously unlisted properties and to deduct collection costs from the funds. It aims to shift costs away from the county and onto funds such as school and state, addressing prior liabilities from private collectors. The measure follows counties contracting with private firms for half the collected taxes, causing confusion. Reports mention prior agency use and expected Senate review.
