Property Tax Information:
Each year the Iowa Department of Management certifies property tax levies, from the taxing bodies, to the County Auditor. These levies are applied to the taxable property values assessed by the Assessor to establish the annual tax amount to be collected by the Treasurer. The first half is due by September 30th and the second half due by March 31st of the following year. The Treasurer prepares and mails a tax statement. Delinquent statements are mailed after February 15th and by May 1st of each year.
Delinquent Taxes
Delinquent taxes are published in June and subject to the annual June Tax Sale. If the taxes are not purchased after two publications a tax sale certificate is issued to the County. If taxes are not redeemed within a given period of time the certificate holder may be given deed to the Property.
Tax Credits
Claims for Iowa Disabled and Senior Citizens Property Tax and Mobile Home Tax Credits are filed with the Treasurer's Office by June 1 of each year. The State of Iowa then reimburses these credits to the Treasurer along with the homestead, agricultural land, machinery and computer equipment, family farm and military credits, which are applied for through the Assessor's office.
The County Treasurer's Office collects property taxes for all taxing bodies. All taxes collected are apportioned and distributed each month to the taxing bodies.
