Car registration set to go on-line

You will soon be able to go on-line to renew your car registration. Lana Taylor is President of the Iowa County Treasurers Association, which is running a pilot project in four counties that allows people to renew on-line. She says it’s going quite well, but they want to give it a few more months, as it just came on-line January 2nd. Taylor says if the pilot goes well, it won’t be that long before they roll it out everywhere.She says they’re looking at the end of March or early April to have “getyourtags.com” on-line to all 99 Iowa counties. Taylor is also the treasurer in Poweshiek County, and she says she’s heard a lot of interest in getting the service up and running. She says she’s had people come to her county who’ve heard about the pilot program. She says those who run trucking companies, or who have big fleets of vehicles, can save lots of cost and time by renewing their car registrations on-line. Taylor says other on-line services, like the property-tax payment system, have proven very successful and she thinks on-line car registration will follow suit.
