Marion County has announced that the mailing of final 2007 tax bills will not occur until sometime this summer. These bills will serve as the final 2007 (pay 2008) bills and will reconcile the difference between the estimated first half bills and the bills reflecting the new 2007 values. These bills will be based on a valuation date of January 1, 2006, meaning the value will be based on market activity for 2004 & 2005. This is going to be a tough sell to taxpayers in the midst of the current economy.
Normally, 2007 taxes would have been paid in May and November of 2008. However, due to the state ordering the county to conduct a reasssessment for 2006 and a computer system snafu, everything has been pushed back. Right now, Marion County is indicating that the 2007 bills will be mailed in June or July and will be due within 30 days. The hope is to have 2008 bills sent a few months later and 2009 (pay 2010) bills to resume a normal schedule of being due in May and November of 2010. It sure will be interesting to see how taxpayers react to being required to pay 2 1/2 years worth of tax bills within such a short time frame.
