Update From the Real Estate Tax Office:

As you are aware, due to a breakdown of machinery, the tax bills were sent to 

Tax Collectors later than normal.  Given the notices were mailed at different dates, 

the tax payer is entitled to a 2% discount if paid within 2 months and may pay at

face if paid within 4 months.  The tax bills were delivered to the mail service on

March 3, 2025.  However, the tax collectors stated the bills were not mailed by

the service until March 13, 2025.  Therefore, taxpayers may pay at 2% discount

up to May 12, 2025 and at face until July 12, 2025.
