Clemons improved office

Sat., May 1, 2010

The Spokesman-Review

Jerry Clemons has made a lot of changes to improve the operation of the Bonner County assessor’s office, since taking office January 2007. He completed a complete audit of all the homeowner’s exemptions resulting in over $500,000 in back taxes being billed. In addition, there will be at least $52,000 in additional taxes collected each year going forward due to the exemption being removed from those houses that were not eligible.

All Bonner County taxpayers will benefit from this audit and Jerry’s continued efforts to improve the operations of the office. Vote for Jerry Clemons, Bonner County assessor, on May 25.
