Your County Collector, Kevin Farr
As your Webster County Collector, Kevin Farr, I would like to welcome you to this website. I hope you find this site easy to navigate and that having the option to pay your taxes online provides a service to you.
The Webster County Collector's Office offers a Pay Taxes Link listed under the Menu Options, where you may pay using e-check, debit or credit cards (there is a convenience fee associated with these types of payments). You may also mail your payment. These conveniences are provided as a courtesy to help you stay safe and healthy at home and avoid paying in person. The Holidays Link under the Information Options, will list all Holidays.
