Tax Collector
About Us
The Tax Collector is primarily responsible for the billing and collection of all taxes billed to municipal residents and commercial establishments. The Tax Collector determines tax liabilities based on prescribed laws and regulations. The Tax Collector confers with taxpayers or their representatives in order to discuss the issues, laws, and regulations involved with their bills, to resolve problems with bills, and sends notices to taxpayers when accounts are delinquent.
The Tax Collector works with residents to determine whether they are eligible for tax credits and deductions. There are two key deductions for which residents may qualify:
- Veteran’s Deduction.
- Senior Citizen Deduction.
The Tax Collector conducts a yearly tax sale, as required by New Jersey statute, to sell liens for properties with delinquent taxes and/or municipal charges, such as water/sewer payments. This sale is held in September.
