Personal Property Taxes

The Commissioner of the Revenue's Personal Property Tax Team is responsible for the assessment of taxes on individual and business vehicles, recreational vehicles, boats, mobile homes, aircraft, and rental tax on daily passenger cars.

In addition, the Personal Property Tax Team administers boat decals, residential parking permits, and yard sale permits.

We also have added DMV Select services. These services include the titling and registering of vehicles, the issuance of license plates, the ordering of specialty plates, and the processing of name and address changes as well as voter registrations.
