MISSION STATEMENT

Our goal is to serve the residents of Jasper County in a professional and courteous manner.

It is the mission of the Jasper County Tax Assessor’s Office to fairly and equitably discover, list, and value all real and business personal property for the purpose of creating the annual ad valorem tax roll in accordance with applicable Mississippi Statutes.

The Tax Assessor/Collector’s office works under the rules and guidelines of the Mississippi Department of Revenue.

Unlike many states where the Assessor and Taxing Authorities work together, Mississippi’s Constitution provides a clear separation between the appraisal of property and the Authorities responsible for setting a Millage Rate to rais

e revenue. It is the mission of the Jasper County Tax Collector’s Office to collect assessed taxes and fees and to turn over all funds collected with comprehensive reports to the Board of Supervisors and to the Mississippi Department of Revenue.

The Assessor/Collector serves the combined offices located in both Paulding and Bay Springs, and is elected every four years by the citizens of Jasper County.

Please feel free to contact me if I can help in any way.

Thank you,
Tim McRee
Tax Assessor and Collector
Jasper County
