Important to know:

• Property assessment values are determined by the York County Assessment Office — not by the Township or School District.
• The assessed value is not necessarily the fair market value or the purchase price.
• Real estate bills for the County and Township are mailed to property owners on February 15th.
• School taxes are mailed to property owners on July 1st.
• Delinquent real estate taxes (taxes unpaid after December 31st) are turned over to the York County Tax Claim Bureau for collection.
• Acceptance of a check from a taxpayer is at most a conditional payment of taxes; the taxes are not considered fully paid until the check has cleared the bank.
• Failure to receive a tax notice shall not relieve any taxpayer from the payment of any taxes imposed by any taxing district and such taxpayer shall be charged with his taxes as though he received notice.
