Collecting property taxes is a highly visible function of the township treasurer’s office. It comes with significant responsibility not only for the large amount of money collected but also for compliance with the General Property Tax Act.
Whether you are newly elected, a seasoned treasurer or anything in between, you’ll find value in this course, led by MTA Consultant Cindy Dodge, which includes discussion on:
• Getting started
• Preparation of the tax bill
• Summer taxes
• Winter taxes
• Accounting for and disbursement of collections
• Settlement
• Delinquent personal property tax
You won’t want to miss this review of applicable laws, “best practices” and so much more! This workshop is also appropriate for deputy treasurers and any member of your township team who has some responsibility in the property tax collection process.
