The deadline to assess personal property and business personal property for 2008 is May 30, said Miller County Assessor Mary L. Stuart.

After May 31, a 10 percent late assessment penalty will be added to the tax statement next year, she said.

All personal property assessments may be made by telephone by calling the assessor’s office at 870-774-1502.

The office is open Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. until 4:30 p.m. in the Miller County Courthouse in Texarkana, Ark.
