Summer taxes went out July 1st. They are due by September 14th of 2008, without interest. Failure to recieve your tax bill will not waive interest. If you have not recieved your tax bill within the first 2 weeks of July, please call us and we will send you another bill.
On September 15th 2008, add 1% interest to the unpaid portion of your summer bill. An additional 1% per month will be added on the first of each month to the unpaid balance. A 3% penalty will be added after the February winter tax due date, along with the 1% penalty. Beginning March 1st, all taxes on REAL property will be paid to Grand Traverse County Treasurer, located at 400 Boardman Ave. The County charges a 4% administration fee & 1% interest per month is applied to delinquent taxes when paid at the County.
