Amador County Tax Collector Reminds You Property Taxes Are Due Soon
Amador County Treasurer-Tax Collector Michael E. Ryan
is reminding property owners that they have until Tuesday, April 10, 2007 at 5
p.m., to make the second installment payment of their annual secured property
taxes for the 2006-07 fiscal year. This deadline should not be confused with the Income Tax deadline which
is five days later. The second
installment of secured property taxes was due and payable on February 1, 2007,
and will become delinquent if not paid by 5 p.m. on Tuesday, April 10, 2007;
thereafter a 10% delinquent penalty and
$10 cost charge will be added.
Taxes remaining unpaid after June 30, 2007 accrue additional statutory
penalties at the rate of 1-1/2 percent per month, as well as additional fees.
Ryan notes that payments may be made by mail sent to
the Amador County Tax Collector, 810 Court Street, Jackson, CA 95642, and must
be postmarked by April 10, 2007 in order to avoid late penalties. Payments may also be made in person at the
Amador County Tax Collector's Office, which is located on the second floor,
West wing, of the new County Administration Center between the hours of 8 am
and 5 pm, Monday through Friday, holidays excepted. For the convenience of taxpayers, a payment drop box
is located on the outside wall of the alcove to the immediate left of the main
entrance to the Administration Center.
Additionally,
payments may be made with a credit card over the telephone by calling
1-800-609-4599. Credit card and e-check
payments may also be made over the Internet by visiting the web-sites shown on
your tax bill. Taxpayers should refer to the back of their tax bill for
further payment information. Amador County property tax information is
