Vigo County Hoping to Avoid Provisional Property Tax Bills

"Vigo County Auditor Tim Seprodi said his office is waiting on approval of a preliminary budget order, called a “1782 notice” from the Indiana Department of Local Government Finance. Once that notice is received, taxing units such as the county public library, the county and city of Terre Haute have 10 days to request any budget changes.

Seprodi has until March 15 to deliver to the state and the county treasurer a certified copy of an abstract of the property assessments, taxes, deductions and exemptions for taxes payable this year in each taxing unit in the county.

If a tax billing abstract is delivered after April 1, then under a law passed by the 2010 Indiana General Assembly, the county treasurer is to issue provisional tax bills. Tax bills must be in the mail by April 25 with property tax bills due May 10."
