PROPERTY TAX PAYMENTS

  • Annual tax statements are mailed once a year in the month of August. Failure to receive a tax statement is not a defense to the payment of the tax and any late interest that has accrued.
  • Your property tax may be paid in full or in two installments. The first half is due September 1 and becomes delinquent October 1. The second half is due March 1 and becomes delinquent April 1. Delinquent interest accrues at the rate of 1.5% per month, rounded to the nearest dollar with a minimum of a dollar.
