The first half of their 2011 property taxes are due today, May 2 for King County property owners<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

The statutory due date for first-half property taxes is normally April 30, but since this date falls on a Saturday this year, the actual due date has been moved to the next business day. After May 2, interest charges and penalties will be added to the tax bill. To make the process easier, King County provides several ways for property owners to pay their taxes quickly and conveniently.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Tax payments can be made:<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

1. <\/strong> By mail if postmarked no later than May 2, 2011. Taxpayers should include their tax statement and write the property tax account number on their check or money order. Cash should not be sent through the mail.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
