Payments may be made at the counter with check, cash, Visa, MasterCard and Discover. American Express is not accepted over the counter. A convenience fee of 2.5% on the payment amount will be assessed by the vendor for credit card payments. Credit card payments can also be made over the phone by calling 888.607.8389.

Tax payments which are mailed MUST be postmarked no later than the July 12th due date to avoid a 5% penalty; payments made after July 22nd will be assessed a 10% penalty.
