TUESDAY IS LAST DAY TO PAY SCHOOL TAXES WITHOUT PENALTY
Release Date: January 29, 2012

Tuesday, January 31st, is the last day to pay your 2nd half of the school taxes without penalty. Don't forget! The town is independent of the school district. But-we act as a tax collector. In fact, if you don't pay the school tax bill the town sends the school district a check for the amount due. They get paid whether you pay your bill or not. The town collects the money from delinquent taxpayers eventually--with penalties authorized by state law.
The school tax bill is sent to residents in September. Because school taxes comprise of more than 50% of your entire tax bill the state law authorizes residents to pay half the bill in September and the other half in January. We don't send residents a 2nd bill in January---that's the reason for this e mail.
Town Hall will be open Tuesday night till 7 PM for your convenience.
The following is from the Receiver of Taxes website. Anne Povella is our new Receiver (an elected position).

This office collects annually, over a quarter billion dollars for the County, Town, Fire districts and 10 School districts located in Greenburgh. It is the largest municipal collection agency in Westchester.

Please feel free to look over our website, for information that may be of importance to you.

ON-LINE TAX PAYMENT BY CREDIT CARD

The Town of Greenburgh now has the ability to accept tax payments by credit cards via the telephone (1-800-272-9829) and internet.

Since the town cannot absorb the service fee charged by the credit card companies, (these companies will not allow us to pass this fee along to the public) an outside firm had to be retained. Please be aware that this firm charges a significant 'convenience fee' to process your tax payment.

Official Payments Corp. is the same company that is utilized by the IRS and several State tax collection agencies.
