TAX PAYMENT UPDATE
Pursuant to the revised Emergency Order signed by Adam Bello, County Executive, all tax payment paid on or before April 30, 2020 will be held at the 3% interest rate. The interest rate will not be increasing to 4.5%. This is for all installment, full, and partial payments. Please contact the Tax Receiver’s Office, (585) 392-9461, for the amount due if you are unsure. In most cases, your final payments will not match the amount due on our final installment coupon. Any payments that are for over the amount due will be returned, as the Tax Receiver is not able to accept overpayments.
