Lions coming along well

West Wyoming taxes are due

First Posted: 8/8/2013 Lackawanna County continues to make it easier for people and companies to business with its various departments.
The Tax Claim Bureau is now accepting on-line tax certification requests. This new service compliments the bureau&#8217;s Delinquent Tax Payment credit card program, which has been in effect for two years.
&#8220;This is a great addition to our other on-line services,&#8221; said Commissioner Jim Wansacz. &#8220;We want to make it easy to do business with Lackawanna County in a very cost efficient and swift manner.&#8221;
&#8220;The On-Line Tax Certification Program is a win-win situation for everyone,&#8221; explained Commissioner Corey D. O&#8217;Brien. &#8220;It helps attorneys, title searchers and bankers get information rather quickly and at a reasonable rate. It also frees-up the Tax Claim staff to handle other fiscal issues and claims payment processing. &#8220;
&#8220;This is a very valuable service that we are offering to the business community and residents,&#8221; noted Commissioner Patrick M. O&#8217;Malley. &#8220;I want to applaud Ron Koldjeski for adding this service. We continue to be more user-friendly in our services and have learned how to do more with less which benefits Lackawanna County&#8217;s residents.&#8221;
Title searchers, attorneys, bankers and real estate agents can access this new service by using a credit card or credit card account.
There is a $10 per certificate charge. The online service also carries a user fee, which is $2.95.
To use the Tax Certification Program, go to the County&#8217;s website, www.lackawannacounty.org. Then scroll down to the bottom of the page. In the &#8220;Our Administration&#8221; column, click on &#8220;Tax Claim.&#8221; Scroll down to the middle of the page to the &#8220;On-Line Payment&#8221; section to do your transaction.
