Car Tax payments are due each year on October 5.  Bills are mailed in the summer after the annual tax rate has been adopted by City Council.  Unlike most Real Estate taxes, Car Taxes are not escrowed each month as part of a mortgage.  However, if you would like to anticipate the taxes due in October, you are welcome to make prepayments any time.  For approximate estimating purposes, base the amount on last year’s bill and prepay the amount you want.  This can be on a monthly basis, or in one or more lump sums.  The residual amount due will be reflected on a revised tax bill mailed to you in the summer.  Personal property tax prepayments can be mailed or paid in-person. 

Pay In-Person: Payments can be made in-person at 2 convenient locations:

• City Hall 301 King Street, Room 1510, Treasury Windows located on the First Floor
• West End Finance Branch Tax Office 4850 Mark Center Drive, Suite 2011, Office located on the Second Floor
