Property Taxes

As a local tax, this levy is, generally, locally assessed and collected for the support of municipal and county governments and local school districts. No part of it supports State government, but a large part of it supports functions that the State has imposed on local units. All taxable property is assigned a value - assessed-by a local assessor in each municipality. An assessment is given as "taxable value," except in the case of qualified farmland, which is specially valued. The amount of the tax is annually determined each year, in every municipality, to provide sufficient revenues to meet the budgeted expenditures of municipalities, counties and school districts, minus revenue available from other sources.

Tax Bills

Tax Bills are typically mailed once a year, during the summer, consisting of four quarterly payments. Sometimes, an estimated tax bill for a specific quarter may be mailed separately. Failure to receive a tax bill does not exempt you from paying taxes or delinquent interest on taxes (NJSA54:4-64).

Tax payments are scheduled as follows:

a. 1st Quarter due: February 1st

b. 2nd Quarter due: May 1st

c. 3rd Quarter due: August 1st

d. 4th Quarter due: November 1st

Grace Period

A 10 days Grace period is allowed to make tax payments without interest charges. Payments must be received in the tax office by the 10th of the month due in order to avoid interest charges. If the 10th falls on a Saturday, Sunday, or holiday, the deadline for payment would be extended to the next business day. Postmark on the envelope is not an indication of receipt by the tax Collector. If payments are not received within the grace period, interest is calculated from the date when the payment was originally due.
