Summer taxes are mailed on July 1, and Winter taxes on December 1. While every effort is made to ensure the timely receipt of your tax bill, it is the taxpayer’s responsibility to notify the Treasurer’s office of any address changes (989-739-9169). If you need a replacement bill, request one by phone and we will mail or email you one.
Summer taxes are due on September 14, and Winter on February 14. If either of these dates falls on Sunday or a holiday, the due date is extended until the next business day. After the due dates, interest is charged at a rate of 1% per month. After the winter due date, a penalty of 3% is charged. The last date that we can accept tax payments in our office is February 28th. After that date, all payments must be made to the office of Iosco County Treasurer. Questions about County collection details should be directed to that office.
