Tax notices are mailed to the owner's last record of address on or before November 1st of each year with a payment due by March 31st. It is the responsiblity of each taxpayer to ensure that a tax bill is received by the responsible party and the taxes are paid. The following discounts are applied for early payments:
4 percent discount if paid in November
3 percent discount if paid in December
2 percent discount if paid in January
1 percent discount is paid in February
Zero percent discount if paid in March
Taxes become delinquent and begin accruing interest at a rate of 1.5 percent per month plus additional fees. Pursuant to Florida Statutes, Chapter 197, tax warrants are issued prior to April 30th of the following year on all unpaid Tangible Personal Property Taxes. Within 30 days after the warrants are prepared, the Tax Collector applies to the Circuit Court for an order directing levy and seizure of the property for the amount of unpaid taxes and costs.
