ISAC

The County Financial Overview is designed to be a resource for county officials, state legislators and all Iowa citizens.  It contains information on property taxes and valuations, county budgets, population and local option sales taxes, to name a few.  Most of the data was supplied by the Iowa Department of Revenue or the Iowa Department of Management, and the source for each table is noted.  If you have any questions, please contact Mary Beth Mellick, ISAC Fiscal Analyst/Public Policy Specialist, at mbmellick@iowacounties.org.
