Great customer service. Very friendly over the phone. Quick service, friendly service. Receptionist/clerk in Vital Statistics saved my day!!

When is the health department going to open back up for septic tank permits?? We can all understand with the covid crisis, however its fading for the time and people whom are building still need these permits. Plus as the county/schools are bleeding tax money, the responsible thing to do is to complete these houses and add that money to the tax base

Donna provided very quick and friendly service and emailed me the plans for my septic system built 30 years ago.

I was amazed that the vital records department doesn’t staff during lunch. I drive two hours and arrived at 12:03. I walked in. And was told they can’t see me till 1pm. HAVE YOU EVER HEARD OF STAGGERED LUNCH BREAKS.? .

I love how your bloated office harasses the general public about their septic system which unlawful costs, yet when there is a large oil slick on bradford drive going down the entire north side of the road, likely from USPS trucks as it gets larger by each mailbox. There is not even a place to leave a voicemail to follow up on monday. Your entire office should be disbanded.
