The Caldwell County Office of Emergency Management has updated its logo to more accurately reflect its comprehensive emergency management strategy. 

The new design visually represents the four phases of emergency management—mitigation, preparedness, response, and recovery. 

It also highlights the multi-disciplinary teams that use the Incident Command System (ICS) to manage a wide range of emergencies, from natural disasters to human-caused events.

Beginning next week, the Caldwell County tax office's Lockhart location plans to roll out two new options for customers.

Visitors to the tax office will be able to virtually get in line via a new on-site kiosk or via an online scheduler that can be accessed from the tax office's page on the county website. 

With the new system, check-in will be electronic, seating will be available, customers can receive text notifications, and appointments will now be offered.

Stay tuned! We'll update you here and on the county website when this goes live.
