Here We Grow Again! Tax Collector Announces Plans for New South Palm Beach County Service Center |
West Palm Beach, Fla. – Palm Beach County Tax Collector Anne M. Gannon is delighted to announce a property has been purchased for construction of the office’s newest, state-of-the-art service center located in Delray Beach. “Our current South County Service Center in Delray Beach has served generations of South County residents, but we have simply outgrown the space,” said Gannon. “South Palm Beach County is experiencing unprecedented growth and to meet the demands of the growing population, we too must grow. This new location in west Delray Beach is best suited to meet the needs of our clients.” Located at 15560 Lyons Road, the new site is situated just south of Atlantic Avenue with easy access from both the Turnpike and 441. With a planned opening in 2027, the new state-of-the-art service center will be a welcome change from the current outdated, small office, currently located at 501 South Congress Avenue. The newest service center will share a design and footprint like the other tax collector proprietary locations, with 23,735 square feet with a bright and spacious interior to enhance the client experience. Other client focused features will include additional client service windows, ample parking, and a self-contained road test area. “For every new home built, an additional 2.3 people will need the services of our office twice a year,” said Gannon. She went on to say, “with this new, larger service center, we will be able to meet these needs and serve clients more efficiently now and in the future.” When construction is complete, the current Tax Collector’s Service Center in the South County Governmental Center will close. South County will be the fourth facility built to meet the needs of our growing Palm Beach County population, joining the other service centers in Lake Worth Beach, Westlake, and Palm Beach Gardens. ### For more information, please contact: Anne M.
