The Oklahoman: Morrissette Late Paying Taxes
The Oklahoman reports that Rep. Richard Morrissette, D-Oklahoma City, traveled Thursday to the Oklahoma County courthouse to personally pay his late 2007 property tax on a rental house.
Morrissette paid $518.46, including $7.66 in interest for being late.
"It was an oversight and it has been taken care of," Morrissette said. "The taxes have been paid. I'm even with the county."
Records show it was the fourth year in a row that Morrissette was late in paying property taxes on the rental house in northwest Oklahoma City. Previous payments have been anywhere from five months to nearly a year and a half late. The tardiness has cost him $271.01 in penalties and interest.
"I can assure you this: It won't happen again," he said.
