Property taxes due June 20
Boundary County Treasurer, Susan M. Larson, would like to remind all Boundary County taxpayers that the deadline for paying the second half of the 2016 property taxes without penalty is Tuesday, June 20.
Reminders were mailed in April for delinquent taxes (if any) and the second half of the 2016 taxes. After June 20, per Idaho Code, a 2 percent late charge and interest of 1 percent per month will be added, retroactive to Jan. 1, 2017 on the second half of the 2016 taxes.
Tax payments can be made in person using check, cash, debit or credit card (convenience fees are charged on all debit/credit card usage by the processing company) at the Treasurer’s office in room 27 of the Boundary County Courthouse, 6452 Kootenai St., Bonners Ferry. Office hours are Monday through Friday 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Tax payments can be mailed to the Boundary County Treasurer, P.O. Box 218, Bonners Ferry, ID 83805. Mailed payments must be postmarked no later than June 20 to avoid penalty.
Credit cards and other payment options are available online, these services also incur a “Convenience Fee” by the processing company. Please visit the Boundary County Treasurer’s page http://www.boundarycountyid.org/site-page/pay-online for more information.
