The Hamilton County Clerk's Office has announced a mechanical mailroom malfunction may be to blame if you haven't received a vehicle registration renewal form in a timely manner.

The Tennessee Department of Revenue, who prepares and mails vehicle registration reminders, has recently experienced "temporary equipment breakdown," Hamilton County Clerk Bill Knowles said.

Knowles said the State Air Pollution Board's test can be administered without the registration renewal form.

"The emissions technician may ask for the form, but a current tag receipt will be accepted," Knowles said. "Emissions results will then be electronically transmitted to the Clerk's office enabling online renewal processing at www.countyclerkanytime.com or applying to renew at the tag office."
