Saugerties Online Tax Payment - Be Sure You're Using the Right Tool
This page is intended to get you to the right tool for paying any of the Town, Village, Water/Wastewater or School taxes that you can pay online today, with a credit card and/or eCheck.
Important First Step - BE SURE WHICH TAX YOU'RE PAYING - Town or Village
It's important that you be sure you focus on the bill in your hand, and that you pay using the correct link and therefore correct tax entity (Village or Town). Otherwise, you can wind up paying a Town tax to the Village or vice versa and this creates a lot of extra work for the Village and Town Tax Collectors to straighten out.
So here is a simple way to BE SURE you are going to use the right link:
- Look at the paper tax bill that you received in the U.S. mail.
- If the "COLLECTOR'S ADDRESS" (upper-left-hand corner) has "4 High Street" as the street name part of the address, as is shown highlighted immediately below:
then you are paying a Town tax. (Don't be fooled by the possible "VILLAGE OF SAUGERTIES" (highlighted in pink) ... that appears on the Town tax bill for people who live in the Village. But if the address shown is 4 HIGH STREET, you are paying TOWN TAXES. So in that case, please scroll further down to the "Town" section and proceed. - If the "COLLECTOR'S ADDRESS" (upper left-hand corner) has "43 Partition Street" as the street name part of the address, as is shown highlighted immediately below:
then you are paying a Village tax ... in which case, please scroll down to the "Village" section below and proceed.
If you are on this page and want to pay your school taxes online, please see the final section -- "School Tax" -- below.
