With the implementation of House Bill 186, which was passed in December and will result in Residential and Agricultural properties in Monroe County receiving a credit against the school district and JVS portions of taxes for the second half tax collection, Monroe County Treasurer Mollie Landefeld has requested and been approved for an extention of the due date for both Second Half Real Estate and Manufactured Home taxes. They will both now be due on Friday, August 7th, 2026. We are waiting on our software company to complete all of the necessary programming changes to show the tax credit on your second half bills. The Treasurer's Office will not be able to print and mail tax bills, or provide anyone with an updated balance due, until these program changes are finalized and thoroughly tested. Please bear with both of our offices while these changes are made, and stay tuned for more information as soon as we have it. Please feel free to share and help spread the word!

Secretary Rollins welcomes President Donald J. Trump’s appointment of John Rich as Special Envoy for American Landowners.

As Special Envoy, Rich will serve as a strong advocate for America’s farmers, ranchers, and private landowners, helping ensure their rights are protected and their voices are heard in Washington. He will work closely with USDA and stakeholders across the country to defend private property rights and address growing concerns from landowners facing pressure related to large-scale solar and wind development that impact productive farmland and rural communities.

America’s farmers and ranchers deserve a government that stands with them. USDA looks forward to working alongside John as we continue advancing President Trump’s commitment to protecting rural America and preserving our nation’s agricultural heritage.
