Time is ticking away. Tuesday is the final day to pay the second installment of your property taxes. If you wait you will have to pay a 10 percent penalty plus a $10 processing fee and who needs to pay that kind of extra money?
As of last Thursday, 362,882 tax bills remained to be paid adding up to a whopping $1 billion dollars. The San Diego County Treasurer-Tax Collector’s Office is expecting a very busy day Tuesday and has extended its office hours at its five branch offices from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. for that one day only.
You can also call in your payment by dialing toll free (877) 829-4732 or you can pay online at sdtreastax.com. If you would like to pay in person, visit one of the five locations below.
