Starr County tax collector reports October collections up from last year
Summary
The county tax collector, identified in the record as Miss Allego, reported October 2024 current collections of $9,946,485.56 and noted higher total collections than October 2023; several other collection figures were provided though some transcript numbers were garbled and are noted as unclear.
Miss Allego, the Starr County tax collector, presented the office’s October 2024 collections to the commissioners. She reported total current collections for October 2024 of $9,946,485.56 and said total collections were $539,002,246.44 more than last year as read in the transcript. She also reported delinquent collections, DMV collections and percentages of projected collections collected to date.
Specifically, the tax collector reported delinquent collections for October 2024 and compared them with October 2023, and stated that as of Oct. 31 the office had collected 55% of projected current collections and 7% of projected delinquent collections; remaining projected current collections were read aloud in the transcript but some of the numeric wording is unclear in the recording.
During the meeting no commissioners asked follow-up questions, and the county judge thanked Miss Allego after she concluded her report.
Notes on transcript clarity: several multi‑digit numbers in the reading contain transcription artifacts (run‑together numerals and fragmented cents amounts). Where a number was clearly stated (for example, the $9,946,485.56 figure), the article reports it directly; where the record is unclear, this article marks the figure as unclear rather than inventing a corrected numeric value.
