The Boone County collector gathers more than one local tax

The Boone County collector collects property taxes for the county and local political subdivisions, so the bill is a stack of local layers rather than one county charge.

A Boone County property-tax bill is a stack, not a single county charge. The Collector collects current and delinquent property taxes for the county and for local political subdivisions with authorized levies.

That is why two parcels in Boone County can carry different layers. School, fire, library, road, improvement, levee, and other districts may apply depending on the address. A countywide guess can miss the piece that actually changes the bill.

For a buyer or owner, look up the actual tax account and tax entities for the property. Boone County’s property records tools point to personal property, real estate tax bill search, and a tax entity viewer. The Collector handles payment, but the bill’s layers come from the parcel’s local districts.
