Do I have to pay a Special Assessment?

Yes. Special Assessments are a required tax and not all mortgage companies will pay Special Assessments. Contact your mortgage holder to determine if you are responsible for the payment of the Special Assessment(s) to avoid interest and/or penalties. Special assessments are due in full before May 1^st of each year. They are not divided into two payments. The City forwards all unpaid Assessments to the County for collection against your property throughout the year. Interest will accrue monthly on unpaid special assessments. Any special assessment added after the tax notices have been mailed out must be paid to avoid accrued interest.
