The
Billing
Process:
The
City
of
Concord
bills
twice
each
year
and
collects
taxes
quarterly.
Payments
are
due
July
1st,
October
1st,
January
2nd,
and
March
31st.
The
July
and
October
bills
are
estimates,
each
based
upon
¼
of
the
prior
year’s
total
bill
(four
quarters).
The
January
2nd
and
March
31st
payments
are
final
bills
for
the
year.
Each
represents
one
quarter
of
the
total
amount
due,
adjusted
by
the
estimated
July
and
October
bills.
The
City
sends
the
July
and
October
bills
in
a
single
mailing
on
or
about
June
1.
The
January
and
March
bills
are
mailed
about
December
1.
Your
bill
for
the
four
quarters
(July,
October,
January
and
March)
is
based
upon
a
property
assessment
for
the
prior
April
1.

Tax
Proration:
Because
your
payments
cover
the
operating
expenses
of
the
various
governments
for
the
July
1
through
June
30
fiscal
period,
the
common
and
recommended
practice
is
to
apportion
tax
payments
in
advance
of
each
quarter.
In
other
words,
the
payment
due
July
1
would
cover
expenses
through
September
30,
October
would
cover
through
December
31,
January
2
covers
through
March
31
and
the
March
31
payment
covers
through
June
30.
This
approach
was
endorsed
in
resolution
number
6694
of
the
City
Council
adopted
April
14,
1997.
A
copy
can
be
obtained
form
the
City
Clerk
or
Collections
Office.
It
is
not
law
and
the
proration
of
taxes
is
still
a
matter
of
agreement
between
the
buyer
and
seller
of
real
estate.
