Wabash County Treasurer Angela Broster provided an update on property tax collections during Monday afternoon’s Wabash County Commissioners meeting.
Broster reported the Treasurer’s Office has collected just over 95 percent of the 2024 payable 2025 tax levy. However, there are still 562 delinquent real estate tax bills and 21 delinquent mobile home tax bills outstanding.
Certified notices were mailed to delinquent taxpayers on February 27th. Broster said the deadline to pay and avoid having a name published in the newspaper is Friday, March 6th. The delinquent tax list will be published in the March 14th edition of the local newspaper.
The Treasurer’s Office will stop accepting personal checks after Friday, March 13th. The last day to make a credit card payment online is Wednesday, March 18th. Credit card payments can be made through the website listed on the back of tax bills.
The annual Wabash County tax sale is scheduled for Friday, March 27th at 10 a.m. in the courtroom.
Anyone with questions about delinquent taxes or payment options is encouraged to contact the Wabash County Treasurer’s Office directly.
