The Wabash County treasurer’s office is busy with tax collections with the deadline for the first installment quickly approaching on January 8th. In her most recent to county commissioners, treasurer Beverly McBride said just over $4 million had been collected out of the $11.1 million that was levied. 36% of the taxes had been collected as of December 21st. McBride thanked local banks for helping collect the taxes to cut down on taxpayers coming into the courthouse. She encouraged taxpayers to make their payments at the drop box outside of the courthouse, by mail, or at the local banks. The second installment will be due on February 5th.
