Clock Ticking on Property Tax Deadline
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.
