DUTIES AND LIMITATIONS
It is the responsibility of the Treasurer to collect the
taxes as they are charged. We do not assess values or set tax rates.

TAX NOTICE
Tax notices are sent from the Treasurer's Office prior to
November 1st of each year. The tax assessment is for twelve
months, January 1st through December 31st, covering the year
in which the notice is sent.

On any property upon which a tax delinquency exists
the tax notice will indicate a delinquency exists, however the amount due on the prior tax IS NOT included on the notice.

If you have an escrow account set up with your mortgage company and they make a request for the tax information we will send them a printout of the amount due (you will receive the original notice). If your mortgage company has requested your information your tax notice will reflect the request under "requesting mortgage company". If they have not made the request please contact them.

DIDN'T GET A TAX NOTICE?
If you move and do not notify the Treasurer's
office of your new addresses you will not get a notice.
Although we get address changes from the post office after a
mailing, forwarding may already be expired. Addresses sent
to us by the post office are not always readable or correct.
It is the tax payers responsibility to see that the correct
address is always on file. IF YOU HAVE NOT RECEIVED YOUR
NOTICE BY NOVEMBER. 1 CONTACT THIS OFFICE.

If you recently purchased property, the tax notice may be
sent to the seller. There is a notation on the tax notice
for the seller to send it on to the new buyer, however,
Sellers do not always send the notice on.
It is the tax payers responsibility to see that they get all
of their notices. Check your descriptions and acreage, be
sure they all add up. If you have a question call us at
435 636 3258

PAYMENT OF PROPERTY TAX
Property taxes are to be paid directly to the Treasurer by
mail or in person. The tax stub or an identifying number
should accompany the payment. The Treasurer is not
responsible for an individual paying on the wrong account.
You can now pay on-line or by phone at
https://payments.officialpayments.com or call 1-888-2pay-tax
(272-9829). Use jurisdiction code 5419 'Real Estate Tax'.

Prepay coupons are provided as a convenient means of
prepaying property taxes. This is not a requirement nor are
there any penalties attached for missed or late prepayments.
The prepay booklet contains nine coupons and will NOT pay
the current year tax in full. Coupon payment amounts are
based on the PREVIOUS years tax amount divided by ten.
Coupons are not required if you choose to make prepayments
throughout the year. Your payment can be processed as long
as you have provided us with a valid parcel number. Keep in mind, all prior years taxes must be paid before current prepayments will be applied. For prepay coupon requests contact our office at 435 636 3257.

PARTIAL PAYMENTS
At any time prior to expiration of the redemption period
partial payments can be made against the lien. Payments
will be applied in the following order: interest and
penalty against the tax of the most current year, tax on the
most current year and so on until the full amount of
delinquent taxes, penalties, and interest are paid.

DATE TAX IS DELINQUENT
All taxes unpaid or postmarked after November 30 of each
year following the date of levy, are delinquent. For each
parcel, all delinquent taxes are subject to a penalty of 2%
of the amount of the tax due or $10.00, whichever is greater.

Unless the delinquent taxes, together with the penalty, are
paid by January 16, the amount of taxes and penalty shall
bear interest at the rate of 6% over the "Federal Discount
Rate" that exists on January 1 following the date of
delinquency. Interest will also be calculated back to
January 1st.

TAX LIEN
A tax upon real property is a lien against the property
assessed. A tax due of improvements upon real property
assessed to a person other than the owner of the real
property is a lien upon the property and improvements.
These liens attach as of January 1st of each year.
Property liens not paid prior to a lapse of four years from
the date of lien is subject to an "Auditor Tax Sale". An
Auditor tax sale will be held each year in May or June.
Property may be redeemed at any time prior to the tax sale.
A person can redeem property by paying to the County
Treasurer
all delinquent taxes, interest, penalties, and
administrative costs that have accrued on the property.
