Payment of Taxes

Tax bills are mailed once a year.  They are due quarterly: February 1, May 1, August 1 and November 1.  There is a 10 day grace period each quarter.  If the 10^th of the month falls on a weekend or a holiday, the grace period will be extended to the next working day.

Payment is processed the day it is received in the office.  Please note that postmark dates are not accepted and interest will be applied. Interest is charged at 8% for the first $1500.00 of delinquency and 18% on the remaining amount.  Once interest is at 18% it will remain so until the entire balance is paid in full.  If payment is received after the grace period, interest is retroactive to the due date of the 1st of the quarter. Also, if there is a balance at the end of the year in the amount of $10,000 including interest or more, an additional 6% year end penalty be applied.

You are responsible for your real estate taxes whether or not you have a bill in your possession.  You can call the office for the amount due and if you need a copy of your bill we will prepare one for you.
