Early tax discount deadline Feb. 16


Published/Last Modified on Monday, February 8, 2010 10:30 AM CST

As Feb. 15 is a state holiday, the Richland County Treasurer’s Office has announced that taxes paid in full on or before Feb. 16 will be allowed the 5 percent discount.

If the payment is mailed, it must be postmarked no later than Feb 16, said Leslie Hage, Richland County finance and accounting supervisor.

The North Dakota Century Code provides a 5 percent discount if property taxes and special assessment installments are paid in full on or before Feb. 15 of each year, she explained. If a payment date falls on a day when county offices are closed, the Century Code allows the payment of the tax on the day following without loss of the discount.
