Prepay for Next Year

Get a head start on next year’s property taxes by making advance payments. You can arrange automatic monthly withdrawals or make prepayments online when it is convenient for you.

Important to know

Eligibility

All property owners with a current tax bill are eligible to make payments using this method. 

Cost

Payments through automatic withdrawal and in-person payments by cash or check have no fees. All other payment methods have a cost depending on the payment method.

Timeline

Pre-payments are applied before your tax bill is mailed. Bills are mailed in October (or November if there is a tax rate election).  Your bill will reflect the balance due. 

Process step-by-step

  1. 1

    Before you begin

    Make sure all prior year property taxes are paid. You cannot begin making prepayments if you still owe taxes from a previous year. 

    Choose how you want to prepay. You can set up an automatic monthly withdrawal from your bank account or make in-person or online prepayments whenever you choose.
