Never fails. There is always a disgruntled city worker who thinks they can have a poor attitude to the customers. The lady who sat on the far right window should take a course in customer service or be fired! Rude worker. I’m disabled and she actually had the nerve to dismiss it. I will be sending in a formal complaint.

Usually don't write reviews for government offices. Worked with Michelle A to transfer stickers on two vehicles. Was super courteous and professional. Michelle, Thank you for a wonderful service!

Dont know the name of the lady (far right desk) She helped me out with an amazing attitude and smile! Great service, she explained everything to me, did all the paperwork for me and made my day. I felt i am not at city clerk’s office, it should be like this! Keep up with an amazing customer service!
