• If you have paid off your mortgage and they had previously been escrowing for taxes, please notify this office to ensure that future tax bills are sent directly to you. Please use the advice copy tax bill that was sent to you until new bills are issued.
• You do not have to send the complete bill when mailing your payment, you can send in the stub only and use your check as a receipt.
