Four days are left to turn in the second half of real estate and mobile home taxes. The taxes were due at the first of the month and must be turned in by March 31st to avoid a penalty. Washington County Treasurer Jeff Garrett explains a penalty of 1.5 percent per month, rounded to the nearest whole dollar, will be attached beginning April 1st.

Statement coupons must accompany payments, which can be made in person, placed in the drop box, or mailed to the treasurer’s office. They can also be paid online at IowaTreasurers.org. Any taxes that remain unpaid on May 31st will be advertised as delinquent and any unpaid on June 15 will be offered at the annual tax sale.
