Taxes are delinquent if not paid by the due date; envelopes must be postmarked by the United States Post Office on or before the due date to avoid late payment penalty and interest. The Municipality does not assume responsibility for the timeliness of postmarks. The confirmation date for payment by e-check or credit card must be on or before the due date to avoid penalty and interest. A 10% penalty will be charged on the unpaid balance of each installment if tax is not paid when due. Interest will be charged at the rate of 2% above the prime interest rate on April 15th on the unpaid balance of each installment if not paid by the due date.

Real Property, Personal Property and Business Personal property tax is payable in full as billed or in installments as billed. Supplemental rolls for individuals and businesses who fail to report personal property subject to taxation are billed with a 10% late filing penalty added, and payment must be in full rather than in two installments.

Taxes are due and payable as billed even if you have filed an appeal on the assessed value of your property. A refund will be made, if appropriate, after resolution of your appeal.

Failure to receive a tax bill does not relieve the taxpayer of responsibility for timely payment nor does it constitute cause for cancellation of penalty, interest or costs in cases of delinquency.
