Porter County Treasurer Mike Bucko would like to remind county taxpayers that the spring payment of their Porter County Property Taxes is due on Friday, May 10, 2013.
To avoid penalties it must be post marked May 10 by the post office to be considered an on time payment, Bucko said. Payment information is on the front and back of this year’s tax bill, he added.
Bucko said taxpayers can pay on line at www.porterco.org. Just click on “Pay my Tax Bill.” You will need the duplicate number so have the tax bill handy.
If you prefer to pay online, E-check is free but credit and debit cards have a fee, Bucko said. Provide your email address and check the box to get a receipt that a payment was made.
Taxpayers have until 11:59:59 p.m. on May 10 to be on time when paying online.
If you are paying at the Treasurer’s Office at 155 Indiana Ave. in Valparaiso, the office is open Monday through Friday during the hours of 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Call 219-465-3470 to receive more information.
