  • Why hasn't my check cleared the bank yet?

    • Each year this office receives many checks as payment for property taxes. Each check must be processed and the payment posted to each property account. If your mailed payment is postmarked on or before December 31st you will not be penalized.

    DO NOT attempt to replicate your payment with cash, credit card, or replacement check as this will create a greater problem and may result in a delinquent account.
