UPDATE: Lawrence Co. Clerk Chris Jobe says the state has switched back to its old system and it is up and running for motor vehicle business. (1:00 pm Wednesday)
January 3, 2018
LOUISA, Ky. — Lawrence Clerk Chris Jobe said this morning that state computer systems are down in the motor vehicles division and he cannot accept payment or transact those services.
The problems began last Friday as a new system to transact payments and register vehicles of all types, pay taxes on them, etc. was being installed.
Jobe said the issue is expected to be resolved soon — in the next day or so — and he will advise the public when the state clears up the problem.
Here is his message:
“…The County Clerk’s Office is currently unable to do Motor Vehicle Transactions due to statewide issues with Kavis, the system that runs the motor vehicle taxing for the state.The state has installed a new Point of Sale System and they are working on the problem.We have no estimated time of repair. Please call the clerk’s office to check on the updates at – 638-4108 or 638-0504.We will keep you updated on any changes. We apologize for any inconvenience…”
Thank You,
Chris Jobe Lawrence Co. Clerk…
