Real Estate & Personal Property Tax Bills

The Town Collector's office mails out Real Estate and Personal Property tax bills on the last week of June and the last week of December. You can find your tax bills online

 Tax bills are always due on:

  • February 1st
  • May 1st
  • August 1st
  • November 1st

(If the 1st is on a weekend, taxes are due the next business day.)

By state law, interest is charged on any and all late payments - even bills that have been lost in the mail or never received due to transfer of ownership. Copies of bills are available in the office if anyone should misplace their tax bill.
