Auto Pay is Here!

We're excited to announce you can now create an account and set up automatic withdrawals through WIPP, the online payment site. If you choose to set up the automatic withdrawal to pay your taxes the money will be taken on the 1st of each tax quarter, except the August quarter which will be withdrawn on the extended due date provided on the tax bill. As a reminder, the same fees apply to Auto Pay as the one-time payments. Please be vigilant when entering your account information as no notification will be sent to you if your payment fails due to invalid account information. Click Here to sign up for Auto Pay now!

The due date for taxes for the August quarter has been extended to September 8th. Payment must be received in the office by 4:30 pm to avoid interest. You can also pay on the online bill pay website up until midnight.
