PENATLIES
Payments received after the 20th of the month are subject to a 10% penalty. Please make sure to have payments in to the office by the due date to avoid penalties. Past due accounts can have liens placed against the property. Liens are added to property taxes as a special assessment and must be paid through the Carroll County Treasurer's Office once placed and certified.
HOW PAYMENTS ARE APPLIED
Payments made are first applied to any penalties that have incurred. Then payments are applied to the oldest balance on the account. For example, an account balance is $128. $44 is 60 days past due, $44 is 30 days past due and $40 is current. A payment of $44 is received. Penalties are paid first. In this case, that is $8.00. $36 would then be applied to the oldest balance. This account will still receive a 10% penalty on the current balance because the current balance has not been paid in full by the 20th of the month.
