NEWTON, Kan. — The Harvey County Treasurer’s Office will be closed to the public on Tuesday, Oct. 14, as the department transitions to new leadership.

Current Treasurer Becky Fields will complete her term on Monday, Oct. 13, concluding her service to the county. Amy Perkins, who was elected in the 2024 election, will officially begin her term as county treasurer the following day.

The one-day closure will allow time for administrative adjustments and the transfer of duties between the outgoing and incoming treasurer.

In addition, all Harvey County offices will be closed Monday, Oct. 13, for the county’s annual employee in-service day. All departments—except for the Treasurer’s Office—will reopen for regular business hours on Tuesday, Oct. 14.

The Treasurer’s Office will resume normal hours of operation on Wednesday, Oct. 15.

Residents are encouraged to plan ahead for vehicle registration renewals, property tax payments, and other in-person services that may be affected during the closure.
