Current Agricultural Use Value (CAUV) renewal applications were mailed on Friday, Jan. 15, announced Clinton County Auditor Terry Habermehl. He is reminding Clinton County farmers that their signed applications must be returned to the Auditor’s office by March 7, 2016.

For those farmers who provided the Auditor’s office with an electronic mail (email) address, their renewal applications were sent electronically.

“This is the first year we have sent the applications out electronically,” Habrermehl said. “It is quicker, saves the taxpayers money, and is more convenient for farmers because they can return their signed forms to the office through email. The response to this new service has been positive.”

Any farmer currently on CAUV who did not receive a renewal application or who has questions about their renewal forms should contact Deanna Liermann in the Auditor’s office immediately. “Our goal is to make it as easy as possible to renew your CAUV applications and to ensure that we receive them from all of our farmers,” Habermehl said.
