School Tax Bill Information

THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT. THE 24-25 TAX COLLECTION SEASON WILL BEGIN AROUND SEPT. 1, 2024 . IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS PLEASE FEEL FREE TO EMAIL: TAXCOLLECTOR@ONTEORA.K12.NY.US

School tax bills will be mailed to all taxpayers on or around August 30, 2024. If your taxes are escrowed through a bank, please forward the bill to your bank. 

The tax collection period is:

September 1, 2024 - September 30, 2024, without payment of penalty
October 1, 2024 – October 31, 2024 with a 1% penalty
November 1, 2024 – November 4, 2024 with a 2% penalty
No taxes will be accepted after 11/4/24

After November 4, 2024, we are no longer able to process tax payments.  For approximately two weeks, the Ulster County Department of Finance will collect certified funds at a 3% penalty on the base amount owed before the taxes will be re-levied onto your general property tax bill with an additional 7% penalty.

Please contact the Ulster County Department of Finance at 845-340-3431 to make arrangements for payment options with them.
