Association issues tax payment reminder
The Fayette County Tax Collectors Association would like to remind all property owners that the face period for paying county and municipal real estate taxes will end on Sunday.
The association said that according to local tax collection law, whenever the last day of a period during which payment may be made at a discount or without penalty falls on a Saturday or Sunday, payment will be deemed timely if it is tendered or postmarked on the succeeding business day. That will be Monday.
Pennsylvania law states that failure to receive a tax notice does not relieve taxpayers from their responsibility to pay the taxes due. Taxpayers who have not received their tax notice should contact their local tax collector. Anyone who doesn’t know who their local tax collector should contact their respective municipality, visit online at fayetteproperty.org or call the Fayette County Assessment Office at 724-430-1350.
