Over the years CAMA has had many modifications and enhancements. Below is the current version.
This is the newest version. Bigger screen with larger defined buttons.
We ve added a couple of new tabs-legal and Inquiries. The Parcel ID bar now includes TS (Tax Status) and the AC field has been renamed to NC (New Construction).
The Legal tab provides the abbreviated legal and the full legal description. The abbreviated legal will be sent to the Collector for tax bills.
The Inquiries tab is optional and provides a history of informal inquiries concerning a parcel.
Currently a parcel is determined void when the Status is VP, but in the new version the Tax Status will determine whether a parcel is Void, Exempt or Public Service; not Status or Type.
Additional Browse options have been added - PrevOwner, Owner ID, MH Number and S-T-R
Browsing by Owner and PrevOwner enables additional options to also search in Name2, Name MO and/or the entire Name.
