Property tax deadline this Wednesday

The spring installment of property taxes are due Wednesday, May 10.

About half of county property owners have their taxes paid through their escrow account, but those without escrowed funds need to pay either by mail, in person at the County Treasurer’s office or at a bank that accepts tax payments.

Property owners who have not paid or gotten payments postmarked by midnight May 10 will be assessed a five percent penalty for the first six months that taxes are delinquent. The treasurer’s Courthouse office is open from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday.
