Information on how to report collisions? |
Washington State Law requires that all collisions involving injury, death or property damage in excess of $700.00 be reported within ten (10) days to the Department of Motor Vehicles.
In most cases law enforcement responds to these collisions and a police report/collision report has been completed and is forwarded to the Washington State Patrol and Department of Motor Vehicles. If this is the case you do not need to complete the self-reporting forms.

| A pet license? |
Any pet (cat or dog) over the age of 6 months is required to have a license. If your pet has been either spayed or neutered, you may purchase a permanent license at the cost of $5.00. However, if your pet is not spayed or neutered, then you must purchase a temporary license. Temporary licenses cost $50 per year, and are renewable on June 1.
