Notice
Failure to receive a property tax bill does not relieve the taxpayer of the responsibility to pay taxes on time or waive applicable interest and penalties.
The property owner is legally responsible for ensuring that taxes are paid on the correct parcel.
If a property tax bill is paid more than once, the first payment received will be applied to the parcel. Any duplicate or subsequent payments will be returned to the payer.
The Treasurer's Office is not responsible for payments made to an incorrect parcel.
