- Property tax bills are mailed once a year in September and contain four quarterly payment stubs. Only for the August quarter you will receive a separate estimated tax bill mailed in June.
- Taxes are due February 1, May 1, August 1, and November 1. Postmarks are not accepted. Post-dated checks are not accepted.
- The township grants a 10-day grace period. Any taxes remaining unpaid after the grace period ends are subject to interest at the rate of 8% per annum on the first $1,500 and 18% per annum for any amount over $1,500 retroactive to the first of the month. A penalty of 6% will be charged on any delinquency in excess of $10,000 if not paid by the end of the fiscal year. Any municipal lien remaining unpaid on the eleventh month of the current fiscal year is subject to Tax Sale at any time thereafter (Ch.99, P.L. 1997)
- Separate checks are required for tax and sewer payments.
- If you pay your taxes through your mortgage company, the statement will say, “This is not a bill, for advice only.” Mortgage companies do not pay your utility bills.
- If you receive an “advice only” statement, but do not have a mortgage company, use this statement to pay your taxes. Your mortgage company should send us a notice to remove your bank code.
- When selling your property, this bill must be handed over to the new owner at the time of closing.
- Failure to receive a tax bill does not exempt you from paying taxes or delinquent interest on taxes. Interest is not permitted to be waived.
