Tax Collector: Cantonment Office Closed; Warrington Office Flooded

June 11, 2012

The Escambia County Tax Collector’s Cantonment is closed starting  today, as it is moved permanently to a new location in Molino. A newly constructed 7,000 square foot building for the tax collector and property appraiser  will open in Molino on Monday, July 2.

The Warrington Tax Collector’s office on Navy Boulevard is now closed until further notice to due to water damage during weekend’s heavy rains. Tax collector Janet Holley said the building had about two inches of water inside.

The Molino service center on Highway 95A will process motor vehicle and vessel registrations and titles, hunting and fishing licenses, property taxes, and business tax receipts.  Limited driver license and ID card services will be available by appointment only.  The new office will continue to offer drive thru service and a 24-hour drop box. Office hours will remain the same — Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. until 4:30 p.m

The county currently leases the Cantonment service center location in the old Winn Dixie Shopping Center for about $60,000 per year. That money, Holley said, will likely be saved and  returned by her office to the county’s coffers at the end of the fiscal year.

The current employees at the Cantonment location will be transferred to the tax collector’s Marcus Pointe office during the move, and then moved to Molino on July 2.

The Escambia County Tax Collector offices remaining open are:

Marcus Pointe
6451 North W Street
Pensacola, Florida 32505

Downtown
213 Palafox Place
Pensacola, Florida 32502

All offices are open 8:30 a.m. until 4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday.
