Motor Vehicle
The Cherokee County Treasurer's Office is an agent for the State of Kansas for registering and titling motor vehicles. We issue license plates upon receipt of proper documentation and submission of the correct fees. The fees include registration fees, personal property taxes, title fees, and sales tax, if applicable. Each year the State sends out courtesy reminders six weeks prior to the expiration date of the license plate. It is a state law that every vehicle has proper insurance coverage before the vehicle can be registered. We handle the initial titling of vehicles in Cherokee County, as well as the annual renewals. Once a vehicle is purchased, the new owner has 60 days in which to bring their documentation into our office to be processed. If the purchase is an out-of-state title, the owner of the vehicle needs to have a vehicle identification inspection completed. This is done at the Cherokee County Sheriff Department or Most City Police Department for a charge of $20.00. Kansas Highway Patrol inspections are done on Thursday at the Cherokee County Sheriff Department from Noon – 2:00 pm for a charge of $25.00. The license plates in Kansas expire based on the first letter in the last name of the first person on the title.

Real Estate
By definition, real estate is land and anything permanently affixed to it, including buildings.
The County Appraiser is responsible for discovering, listing, and valuing all property within Stanton County and must follow laws when meeting these responsibilities.
The first step in the appraisal process is to gather information concerning ownership, location, type of use, sales, building measurements, construction type, construction costs, and rental income.
Primary sources for this information are real property deeds, subdivision maps, building permits, local building contractors and office personnel who conduct on-site inspections to gather building contractors and interview owners. This information is stored by the County Appraiser, updated and maintained for current and future accepted appraisal process.
Each year the appraiser must review recent real estate sales and consider local economic conditions in order to maintain the most current value of property in the county.
Oil & Gas
The lease operator/taxpayer/tax representative is required to provide the information requested in Sections I-IV of the prescribed oil or gas rendition form and all other information necessary to figure the valuation of the property as determined by the Director of Property Valuation.
Failure to file a rendition on or before April 1 will result in penalties assessed to the operator.
The Prescribed Oil & Gas Rendition forms and Guide can be downloaded from the link below: Kansas Department of Revenue - Oil & Gas Forms and Information
