Stark Real Estate Tax Season Part 1 Underway

CANTON, Ohio (News Talk 1480 WHBC) – It’s tax time in Stark County, and we’re talking about that other tax here.

Your real estate taxes.

The bills went out last week, so most property owners should have them.

County Treasurer Alex Zumbar says the only difference for this collection is that the tax notice is green in color.

They used to have one color for the first half collection and another for the second half.

The “charge” or total amount being billed is just over $222 million.

Taxes are due on or before February 22.

If you own a manufactured home, the bill is coming soon.

The manufactured home tax is due March 1.
