Mobile Home taxes are due the last day of January and the last day of July. Mobile Home bills reflect current year taxes. For example the bills due in 2000 are for the tax year 2000. Currently, Allen County will only accept cash or check as payment for taxes. At this time we do not take credit cards or offer direct deduction from your account. As your Treasurer, I am working on implementing these programs. While many residents mail their taxes we still offer personal service by having 3 registers open to accept payments in our office.

SENATE BILL #142
Please Read ... Important Notice

New legislation has been passed Enacted March 1, 1999 - Effective January 1, 2000. The Senate Bill 142 changes the way Manufactured Home Tax is calculated and collected. The County Auditor is responsible for tax calculations and the County Treasurer is responsible for the collection procedures. We feel that it is our responsibility to notify owners of all changes in the collection procedures. Therefore, we sent out a form letter to all manufactured home owners with their July bill. Following is the letter we sent.

The enactment of Senate Bill #142 brings manufactured/mobile homes collections up to the level of real estate, therefore creating many new questions and uncertainty for our taxpayers. To prepare for this change in February of 2000 we created a new position within our office of a "Collections Manager", Mr. David Britt will be working with past due accounts to resolve delinquencies before the County Prosecutor's office, per the Ohio Revised Code, is to become involved. For questions pertaining to manufactured homes e-mail him at dbritt@allencountyohio.com or call at (419) 228-3700 extension number 8879.
