It is the responsibility of every property owner to keep their mailing address up to date at all times. To facilitate this process, we have provided the following information:
  1. Property Owner Responsibility: As a property owner, it is crucial to maintain an updated mailing address to receive important documents promptly. This includes property tax bills, notices, and other official correspondence.

  2. To update your mailing address, please contact the Tax Department via email at [email protected]. 

  3. Online Form: Alternatively, you can visit the tax account mailing address change form to access our convenient online form specifically designed for updating mailing addresses. This form allows you to provide the necessary information quickly and easily.
By taking the necessary steps to keep your mailing address current, you can help avoid any delays or complications in receiving crucial documents related to your property.
Pre-Authorized Payment Plans
The Town offers a number of pre-authorized plans either on the installment due dates, or monthly payments that can assist you by spreading out your remittances for up to 10 months between February and November.

To be eligible for the PTP Plan, your tax account must be paid in full. 

Other charges added to your tax account cannot be paid through the PTP Plan. You must pay other charges, such as Water Arrears separately on the due date only.

Any payments that are returned by the bank for any reason will be subject to a Finance Service fee and Late Payment fees, regardless of whether the payment is replaced before or after the return.  

To apply / cancel / change banking information, please see Pre-Authorized Payment Plans.
