JEFFERSON CITY - The Ste. Genevieve License Office will soon have a new management team.

Bollinger County Abstract & Title Co. of Marble Hill, MO, will be the new agent for the license office.  The company was chosen as part of a competitive bidding process that is used for all of Missouri's 182 local license offices.

The company has previous experience running a license office, as it has been the agent of the Marble Hill License Office since April of 2011.  The company's winning bid for the Ste. Genevieve License Office was one of two submitted.  The office will stay at its current location at 207 Plaza Dr., Suite B.
