Hi from Hinesburg
I would never think of charging a taxpayer for a
copy
of their tax bill. It takes a second to print it on the
Laser
printer. It has been my understanding that we can only
charge
what it cost to copy. (is that three cents?) This time of
year
there are usually many many requests, but it is for a short
period
of time and giving citizens a copy of their tax bill places no
great burden
on this office.
Hi Cheryl,
I too am concerned about the number of tax bills and
federal property sheet we have to obtain for our residents. Most of us
want them faxed to their accountant immediately!!!! One man even asked
me to fax it to him in his car!!! That's one for the books!! I
have not comfirmed this but was told that the town of Colchester charges two
dollars for each requested tax bill!!!
I wish we could have a standardized policy on this as many
of my taxpayers have property in multiple towns and are charged or not
charged depending on the town's policy.
We do not charge but are thinking about doing
it!!!
