Hey Folks, a reminder that today is the last day to make your 1st half property tax payment without penalty. If you're going to mail it, walk it inside the post office and ask them to postmark it! Or, come visit us on this rainy day and make your payment in person. Perhaps you'd like to pay online? Do that at iowatreasurers.org. Have a great fall and winter!

26/27 property tax statements will be arriving in your mailboxes soon! Remember that taxes are due throughout the month of September, not delinquent until October 1. Talk to us if you have any questions. Two of our favorite things to do are answer questions and solve mysteries. 🤓

Hey folks, if your plan is to mail your tax payment, don’t trust the guy on the left to make sure your envelope is date stamped in March. You’ve got to take your envelope inside to the guy on the right (or someone dressed like him) and ask for him or her to date stamp it, no later than March 31st! Or you can come see us at the treasurers office and tell us your best bad joke. Of course you can always pay online at iowatreasurers.org or drop your payment in the dropbox at the Dodge St. door.

Parents of children 1 through 5, check this out!

Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library is now available in Van Buren County!! The beloved early literacy program — which mails a free, age-appropriate book each month to children from birth to age five.
This regional expansion is made possible through a partnership supported by funding from Early Childhood Iowa, along with leadership from our local United Way.
Families can register their children by visiting https://imaginationlibrary.com/check-availability/ and entering their zip code, or by contacting United Way of Southeast Iowa at 319-752-7831 for assistance. The first round of books is expected to begin arriving in January 2026.
