New Construction

If you have recently moved into new construction, you may not receive a bill in February. This is because your home was not assessed in time. Once your dwelling has been assessed, you will receive an interim tax bill for the time period that you lived in the home for that year.

Payment Discounts & Penalties

A 2% discount is offered for payment made within 60 days of billing. If payment is not received within 120 days of billing, a 10% penalty is levied.
