When are tax bills available? How much will my tax bill be?
Winter tax bills are payable December 1 through February 28. Summer tax bills are payable July 1 through August 10. Both current tax and late tax payments are accepted at City Hall through February 28, subject to a penalty fee. After February 28, taxes are payable through the Wayne County Treasurer's Office only. For late payments, please contact the Wayne County Treasurer.
We are unable to give tax amounts until we receive the millage rates from our tax entities. Unless there is a sale of the property, the amount of your taxable value is increased by the rate of inflation each year.
