It is an honor to serve you as Lexington County Treasurer.
The Treasurer’s role includes collecting taxes and investing county funds – functions that are vital to county government operations. Our Office is also committed to protecting taxpayers, and we’re continually striving to make processes and procedures more efficient and more user-friendly. Every day, we’re working to find ways to cut expenses while improving customer services – so that you get the absolute most for your hard-earned tax dollars.
If you have any suggestions about how the Treasurer’s Office can improve performance or streamline operations, I’d like very much to hear from you. Please don’t hesitate to contact me with your ideas.
