School Real Estate and Per Capita Bills Mail Date NEW
August 1st is the mail date for both your School Real Estate and Per Capita
bills. It is your responsibility to notify the City in the event you
do not receive them.
Per Capita is a head tax, waged on every resident over the age of 18 and this
year remains at $35. There are exemptions (based on income from all
sources) available to those who qualify. Upon receipt of your per capita
bill, all proof of income must be brought into our office, and a form filled out
and signed by the person to be exempt. This process must be followed each
year.
School Real Estate taxes will remain the same as last year at 59 mills.
Also, the State has allocated $460,208.26 for the Homestead/Farmstead approved
parcels. This money will be divided evenly among our 4,648 Homestead and 8
Farmstead approved properties. This equates to $98.88 per parcel for
this year. This amount will show up as a credit on your School tax bill.
The Homestead/Farmstead Act also offers those approved, 4 equal payments to
satisfy their school district tax only. Certain rules apply to these
payments and they are explained on your bill.
Also the deadline for the tax rebate through the state has been extended to
December 15th. If you qualify and have not already done so, please check
with your tax preparer. We are working to change the look of future bills,
and are hopeful to begin with the August 1st School Real Estate bill. The
planned bill will be a folded and sealed form with tear off ends. Soon,
all taxes will be formatted in this manner which will be a more personal,
private means of mailing.
If you have any questions, feel free to call our office at 724-347-4472, and we
will be pleased to assist you.
