Some county taxpayers receive refunds

June 30
Ezra DeVore / Sheila Harris

    If you paid your 2020 taxes before March 1 of this year, you may have received a check (or checks) from the Barry County Collector’s office.
    According to collector, Skyler Bowman, 30,907 checks totaling $399,176.59, bearing the words “levy correction,” were mailed to certain recipients throughout the county.
    According to a statement from Barry County Clerk, Joyce Ennis, “Certification errors of the 2020 tax levies for Barry-Lawrence Ambulance District and Barry County Developmentally Disabled were discovered. Tax payers were over-taxed for these two entities. Patrons that paid before March 1, 2021 will receive refunds of the over-taxed amounts paid to these entities.”
    Presiding commissioner Gary Youngblood said that due to the legal requirements set forth by their auditor the checks had to be mailed, instead of credited to a taxpayer’s 2021 statement - even though many of them were for a small amount.
