I have my taxes set up in escrow, why do I still get a bill?
The responsibility of assuring that taxes are paid resides with the property owner. Most financial institutions gather escrow information electronically, and do not request a paper bill from the township, so there is clear way to maintaining an exact escrow holder file. If you have recently changed banks, or have had problems in the past, you may contact the treasurer to verify payments.

What if I can’t afford to pay my taxes?
Our office accepts partial payments. On March 1st, delinquent taxes are turned over to the Livingston County Treasurer’s office, and 5% is added at that time, so it is best to pay what you can before that time. Also, if you believe you might qualify for a Hardship Exemption, please refer to the assessor tab on this website for further information.
