2nd reminder: school taxes due Monday Feb 2nd, 2026 --don't throw snow back on street

2nd reminder: school taxes due Monday Feb 2nd (because Jan 31st falls on a weekend you have till Monday)
Please do not throw snow on the streets. Many residents are complaining that some roads are still slippery. One reason: After we clear the road of snow many people are throwing the snow back on the streets. This creates slippery and hazardous conditions. Our highway department crews are working hard this entire week addressing snow related issues. Your cooperation is appreciated.

Just a reminder that taxpayers have until Monday, February 2nd to pay the 2nd half of your school taxes without penalty. Usually, school taxes are due on Jan 31st but because the 31st falls on a Saturday taxpayers have an extra two days.Greenburgh town Hall is open Monday till 7:00 PM.

On February 3rd some Greenburgh residents will be upset because they paid the taxes a day late and were assessed a large penalty. The penalty is 10% penalty for being a day late – an amount that could exceed $1,000.

I have complained about the 10% penalty many times. Have been advised that the town can’t waive the penalties. Some taxpayers, in the past, had to pay the penalty even though never received a reminder in the mail. They won’t even waive the penalty if someone forgot to pay because they were in the hospital with life threatening illnesses. There are no exceptions which I think is wrong.

The Receiver of Taxes sent out reminders to taxpayers in mid January. We have also placed reminders on digital boards. Please don’t forget. You can pay your tax bill online. Click onto the Tax Department section of the Greenburgh website.
