Check your tax bill

Some Homestead State Payment adjustments have not been applied to mailed bills

The Tax Department has held some Homestead Declarations aside for review, state officials have explained to town officials. These State Payment Adjustments should be applied by the next tax upload scheduled for Aug. 1.
