Alton, Mo. – On Friday, March 14, 2025, catastrophic storms tore through the region, destroying and damaging homes, barns, and structures. Removing debris is important. With that, one decides whether or not to rebuild. Whatever the decision, it could impact your tax situation. The Oregon County Assessor is reaching out to residents to contact him of any changes.
