There is a 10 day grace period for property tax payments. All payments must be received in this office by Tuesday, February 10, 2015 to avoid a penalty. Postmark is not accepted.
Please allow ample time for mail delivery. If you are using online checking, confirm with your banking institution that payments will arrive on time and be sure to include your block and lot number in the memo. We cannot make exceptions for payments still en route on February 10th. All payments received after the February 10th deadline will accrue interest from February 1, 2015. Payments may also be dropped off in the yellow Village mail box at the rear main entrance.
The Tax Collector’s Office offers an ACH bank draft program (direct withdrawal). This service assures your payment will be received in a timely manner as well as providing a safe and secure way to pay your taxes without the worry of mail delivery or coming in to pay in person. Quarterly property tax payments will be debited from your checking account on the payment due dates. See our website for details and enrollment applications.
A special reminder to those taxpayers who have recently completed improvements on their property: added tax bills, mailed out the week of October 12th are due in addition to your regular tax bill sent to you in September.
