The first installment of property taxes are due by January 31. Payments may be made by mail, dropbox or in person at the Village Office. Additionally, payments may also be made at Johnson Bank. After January 31, tax payments must be made to the Racine County Treasurer’s Office. If you need a copy of your bill, you can find it online from the Racine County Treasurer’s website at http://racinecounty.com/government/county-treasurer/tax-inquiry. After you search for your property record, look for the dropdown menu title “Select Detail” and choose “Taxes.” From the tax page, you can see past payments as well as links for your most recent property tax statements.
Dog License Reminder
Residents are encouraged to renew dog licenses this time of year when you are coming to the Village Office to pay your tax bill. A dog license application can be found on the bottom of the insert mailed with the property tax bill. Additional applications can be download from the Village website or picked up at the Village Office. The fee for a dog license is $15 per altered (neutered or spayed) dog and $35 per unaltered dog. A $10 late fee is added on for dog licenses obtained after April 1. Submit the application and fee along with a copy of an unexpired rabies certificate obtained from your veterinarian to the Village Office. If submitting by mail, be sure to include a self-addressed stamped envelope for the receipt and tag to be returned to you.
