The merchant name is “<my county> FINANCE” and the merchant description “GOVERNMENT SERVICES-NOT ELSEWHERE CLASSIFIED”. The fee was baked into the total amount charged.

I have never paid anything else to the county directly, but I wonder if other payments (say, for a building permit) would look the same.
