If you are paying via the Internet, you will receive a digital receipt once your credit or debit card charge has been authorized and your payment is completed. We recommend that you print this receipt for your records as proof of payment.

Property bills are mailed in the first part of December of each year to the owner of record as of November 1. If there is a mortgage on the property, the mortgage holder receives a copy of the tax bill. Depending when the property was transferred, new owners should contact their title company or review their closing statement to determine who is responsible for paying taxes. Unpaid taxes will continue to accrue against the property unless the bill is paid.

If you mail your payment on time, but the Post Office fails to postmark it by the due dates, it will be considered a late payment and penalties will apply.
