Treasurer's Offices To Be Closed to Vehicle Business May 1-7th

04/14/2012

The Brown County Treasurer’s Office along with other treasurer’s offices across the state will be closed to vehicle business from May 1 through 7 while the state converts to a new system for titling and registering vehicles.

The office will also be unable to renew driver licenses and identification cards during that time.

Brown County Treasurer Cheryl Lippold said the Kansas Department of Revenue is putting into place a new DMV system that replaces three aging mainframe systems used for driver licensing, motor vehicle titling and registration, and inventory management with a single, modern system that is easier to use, maintain and enhance.

The change will take place in two phases. Phase one involves launching the part of the system that affects vehicles. Phase two, which involves driver licensing and other state-issued identification cards and permits, will occur later this year.

Lippold said customers who need to renew a vehicle registration need to be aware that web-based applications that interact with the vehicle titling and registration system will also be offline during conversion.

Kansas Web-Tags will shut down at midnight April 26 and will not be back online until May 7.

Vehicle owners whose registrations expire in April, and who want to renew online, need to do it by midnight April 26. Otherwise, they are encouraged to renew in person at the Brown County Treasurer’s Office to be sure their renewal is processed by end of day April 30.
