A new tax collector's office is now open over in the Southmost area in Brownsville.

A ribbon cutting ceremony was held at the new building on Friday. Its new location is at the 3000 block of Southmost Road.

"It's going to service a lot of people, and I believe in my heart that the people deserve this building. I think it's about time," Cameron County Tax Assessor-Collector Antonio "Tony" Yzaguirre said.

The new building costs around $3 million to build. It has five ATMS and three self-service lanes. The building has a capacity of 52 customers.
