2007 Tax Statements Have New Design - 11/7/2007

November 19th the Treasurer’s Office will begin mailing out over 190,000 Real Estate and Personal Property Tax Statements.

The first half tax payments are due on or before December 20, 2007. The second half tax payments are due on or before May 10, 2008.

You can pay your taxes, view your detailed account information, view prior tax years, view payment history, print a tax statement, and now print a tax receipt through our website. If you would prefer to receive your tax receipt by mail, you must put an “X” in the designated box on your remittance slip at the bottom of your tax statement. If you do not mark the box, a receipt will not be mailed to you. Your online receipt can be accessed anytime after your payment has posted. Please allow three business days for your account to update online.
