UPDATE FROM THE TAX OFFICE: 

Real Estate tax bills, based on the temporary rate of 31 mills, were sent out at the beginning of August.  These bills MUST be paid by September 2nd. If not paid by then, interest will be added to the account.  Please go to the Tax Collector’s department on the website on how interest is calculated.

If you use your banks bill pay, please be aware that a check is mailed to us without a postmark. If we receive ANY payment after September 2nd without a postmark it will be considered late. Please see payment options under the Tax Collector’s department for other means of paying. Interest cannot be waived per state statute. Failure to receive a tax bill does not relieve the taxpayer from the responsibility of paying taxes or interest.

If your mortgage company will be paying your tax bill, the tax bill went to them for payment. If you have questions as to whether they will be paying the bill, you should contact your mortgage company to find out.

If you are supposed to pay the tax bill and you haven’t received your bill, please call the tax office or you can look it up online here: TAX BILL LOOKUP

Motor Vehicle, Personal Property, and the remaining balance due on Real Estate Accounts will be billed by the end of September to be paid in October with a delinquent date of November 3rd. These bills will be based on the recently adopted mill rate of 32.3.

Fleece Tie Blankets

If you can use scissors and a ruler and know how to tie a knot, this is the project for you!. 

 

Helpful Highlights

  • Use fleece fabric. Fleece does not fray when cut and it is warm and very cozy.
  • You need 2 pieces of fabric for each blanket. Depending on the size blanket you want to make, you will need 1 1/2, 2 or 2 1/2 yards of fabric for each piece. . 
  • Colors and patterns. You can get creative choosing colors and patterns. There are plenty of options; solid colors for both fabrics, a pattern for one piece and solid for the second, or find complimentary patterns for both fabrics. Have some fun and let your creativity flow.

    Feeling unsure? The staff where you purchase your fabric can lend a hand. Another option is to purchase a no sew fleece kit - the fabric is already chosen for you.
  • Interested in delving into the world of colors and color theory?  We have the book for you, "Color" by Betty Edwards.
