Your tax money goes into different funds depending on where your property is located.  The county is split up into different taxing units.  Each unit receives a different rate; these rates are called "levies".  We use the levy along with the value to determine the tax amount.  Your taxing unit and levy are listed on the top right side of your tax statement.

The County Treasurer's role in Tax Distribution...
Tax monies that are collected throughout the year are distributed for Public Service Agency funds on or before Jan. 20, March 20, June 5, Sept. 20, & Oct 31.  Checks are issued to these agencies including schools, libraries, rural fire, cemeteries, cities, and watersheds directly following these fund distributions.  On the upper right side of your tax statement it will show the break down that each Agency will receive from your tax payment.

The Treasurer's Quarterly report is published in the Yates Center News at the beginning of February, May, August, and November and shows the current balance each fund carries.
