The Tax Bill

The Macomb Township tax bill is a single sheet with a perforated portion on the bottom, that must be returned with payment, and a return envelope. Residents that have an escrow account with their mortgage company will receive a bill that states, "Information Only - Retain for Tax Purposes" and will not contain a return envelope. Failure to receive your tax bill does not waive interest or penalty.

Bill Payment

Tax payments can be made in person with either cash, check or money order at the Macomb Township Treasurer's Office. Please bring your entire bill when paying in person. Credit/debit card payments incur a 3% fee from the card companies.  You can also pay online (External Link). .

Paying directly from your savings account or checking account is available with no fees. Please choose 'electronic check' option when selecting your payment method. 

Debit and credit card payments incur a 3% fee to cover the transaction fees that credit and debit card companies charge the Township. 

Please have your tax bill handy when going online to pay. Payments must be made before 11:59 PM to be posted for the same day. Payments made after 12:00 AM will be posted the next day.

A secure drop box is also available for your convenience on a 24-hour basis at the top of the ramp entering the rear of Township Hall. A drive-up secure drop box is also located in the west parking lot of Township Hall for payments by check. No cash in drop boxes please. 

Winter Taxes

Winter taxes are payable from December 1 through February 14, without penalty. After February 14, a 3% late fee is assessed through February 28.

On March 1 all unpaid taxes will be forwarded as "delinquent" to the Macomb County Treasurer for payment, with additional penalties assessed by the Macomb County Treasurer's Department.

Note: If February 14 falls on either a Saturday or Sunday, tax bill payments are due the Monday following the 14th. 

Summer Taxes 

Summer taxes are payable July 1 through September 14 without penalty. After September 14 a 1% penalty is assessed through September 30. An additional 1% penalty is assessed each month from October 1 through February 28. Payments received without penalty will be applied as partial payments and penalties will continue to accrue on any outstanding balance. Failure to receive your tax bill does not waive interest or penalty.

Note: If September 14 falls on either a Saturday or Sunday, tax bill payments are due the Monday following the 14th. 

Tax Deferments

Mortgage/Escrow Companies

It is important to make sure the Treasurer's Department has the request from the taxpayer's mortgage/escrow company in writing for payment of your tax bill. It is the sole responsibility of you the taxpayer to see that your tax bill is paid on time by your mortgage/escrow company and not the responsibility of Macomb Township.

Making Changes to Property Tax Information

The Treasurer's Office will only make changes to escrow companies. All other change requests will be forwarded to the Assessing Department for completion.
