Frequently Asked Questions
- Can I get an e-mail reminder when taxes are due?
Yes, if you sign up for our City email blast. Emails are sent out with City information and updates at least once a month.
Register here.
- When are tax bills mailed?
Tax bills are mailed out once a year sometime in July. New bills are mailed when there is a change in ownership; but it takes 4 weeks to get the changes from the County so please contact tax office for amounts due in meantime.
- When are tax payments due?
Property taxes are billed in Northfield on a calendar year, January 1st to December 31st., in four quarterly installments, as follows:
1st quarter - February 1st
2nd quarter – May 1st
3rd quarter – August 1st
4th quarter – November 1st
There is a 10 day grace period. On the 11th day, interest is calculated back to the 1st. If the 10th falls on a weekend or legal holiday, you have until the next working day to make payment. We cannot honor postmarks. Failure to receive a tax bill does not exempt you from paying taxes or the interest due on delinquent taxes.
Delinquent taxes are subject to interest as follows:
- 8% up to $1,500.00
- 18% on balances over $1,500.00 per annum.
- Any delinquency in excess of $10,000 will be charged a penalty of 6% if not paid by the end of the fiscal year.
