New Property Tax Appeal Dates!


Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, there are a few changes to the property tax process this spring.



Second Installment Late Fees Waived

Interest penalties for late payment of second-installment property tax bills due later this year will be delayed, giving property owners struggling financially during the coronavirus pandemic more time to pay their bills without a late fee. The waiver would mean property owners would have until Oct. 1 to pay without facing a 1.5% interest penalty. Bills are normally due by Aug. 3.


2020 Property Tax Appeals Delayed

The 2020 property tax appeals dates were delayed and new dates were announced.
