Taxes are due when billed. If payment is by a single payment, such payment must be physically received in the borough finance office on or before the fifteenth day of October in the year in which taxes are levied, or postmarked by the United States Postal Service (USPS), not metered machines, by the due date. Taxes levied in any given year may be paid in two equal installments. If the taxpayer elects this option, then the first half is delinquent unless it is physically received by the borough office or postmarked by the USPS, not metered machines, on or before the fifteenth day of August in the year in which the taxes are levied. The second half of the taxes thus levied is delinquent unless it is physically received by the borough finance office or postmarked by the USPS, not metered machines, on or before the fifteenth day of November in the year in which the taxes are levied. If the annual levy is made on or after the first day of June, the borough assembly may by resolution establish a later delinquency date. Taxes normally become delinquent after the dates mentioned in this section. [Ord. FY2015-10 §9, 2015; Ord. 99-02 §2, 1999; Ord. 88-30-O §2, 1987; Ord. 84-24-O, 1984; Ord. 82-33-O , 1982.
