  Property Tax payment due dates are: February 1*, May 1, August 1*, Nov. 1

  All payments are due on the 1st of the month and have a 10 day grace period (the maximum allowed by

  State law). However, there are times when the mailing of the bills is delayed and we may have to adjust

  the due date. When this occurs, there will be an insert enclosed with your tax bill explaining the new

  extended due date. Everyone in town, from a residential property or business, have the same tax rate.

  That tax rate is then multiplied by the assessed value of each property to generate the amount of taxes

  that are owed and billed for.

  Tax Sales: The Borough of Union Beach operates under a fiscal calendar year of July 1 through June 30

                      (as opposed to January 1 to December 31). Annually, at the close of our fiscal year, we have

                       what is called a Tax Sale. That is when any tax balances due to the town at the end of the

                       year remain unpaid, that amount will go to an advertised Public Sale where someone can

                       come in and pay what is owed to the town and then they, in turn, hold a lien on the property.

                       All liens must be paid in full and can be paid at the Tax office with certified funds.
