Dallas County officials are gearing up for tax collection season.
And it’s the first year the county will be collecting the property taxes for both the city of Selma — and the rest of the county.
Property owners in Selma won’t be going to City Hall to pay city property taxes anymore. Because city property taxes — are now being collected — by the county instead.
And vice versa. So as a consequence — tax collection was put under one roof — to help simplify — and streamline the process.
County tax officials have made some property and tax software upgrades — to provide people with more online access — to information about a property.
The upgrades also provide — the ability for property owners — to conduct more business online.
Tax collection season starts October 1st — and runs through December 31st — without penalties.
