All Sarasota County Tax Collector offices will be closed Monday, Aug. 31, as staff members complete final preparations for the transition to Grant Street Group’s TaxSys tax collection software platform, the Tax Collector’s Office has announced.
“Offices will reopen with normal business hours on Tuesday, Sept. 1, with the new, modern technology platform in place,” a news release notes.
“The Aug. 31 closure will allow staff to complete the final steps necessary for the transition ahead of the Sept. 1 launch,” the release explains. “The new platform will provide a more streamlined experience for customers,” it points out.
