Township Mailing Out Estimated 3rd-Quarter Tax Bills

Livingston Township will soon be sending out estimated third-quarter tax bills to residents. 

The township has not yet received all of the information necessary to issue final 2013 tax bills and will be issuing estimated bills for the Aug. 1 payment. By mailing estimated bills, the township expects to avoid unnecessary costs associated with issuing tax anticipation notes to borrow money for cash flow purposes, according to a township press release. 

To avoid interest charges, all payments must be received on or before Aug. 12.

Upcoming tax bills for Nov. 1, Feb. 1, and May 1, 2014, will be adjusted, if necessary, and mailed following certification of the final 2013 tax rate by the Essex County Board of Taxation.

Tax payments may be made online using a credit card or via direct withdrawal. Both are available through the township's website at www.livingstonnj.org by clicking “Pay Tax/Water Bill Online”. 

Residents can also make tax payments by mail or in person at the township Tax Office located in town hall, at 357 S. Livingston Ave., or through the drop box located in the rear parking lot of town hall.
