Share Commissioners Hear Presentation On Centralizing Local Tax Collections The Hill County Commissioners Court met in a regular session Tuesday, March 9, and heard a presentation from Hill County Appraisal District (HCAD) Chief Appraiser Mike McKibben on a possible agreement regarding county tax collections. McKibben told the court that centralizing tax collections through the Hill County Appraisal District could save the county money, would be convenient to the public and could be accomplished without much extra work for his office, which already collects over $30 million in tax levies for local entities. "Centralized collection makes paying taxes so much easier, and it's a huge benefit to the public," McKibben said. "They only have to go one place to pay taxes."
