Receipts can be mailed if you include a self-addressed stamped envelope. I will no longer be able to e-mail your receipt due to changes in the tax program. Please allow time for processing. Refunds over $5 will be mailed by the Town Clerk. Refund checks will not be mailed prior to 1/11/22. There are NO on-site or cash refunds.
-----LOTTERY CREDIT NOTICE-----
The Lottery and Gaming Tax Credit is available only to property owners who used the tax parcel and improvements as their primary residence in calendar year 2021. If you purchased the property during 2021, and the property was the previous owner's primary residence, this property may already be receiving the Lottery and Gaming Credit. Check your tax statements for accuracy and report any address/ownership changes. Inappropriate Lottery Credit claims can incur penalties. The First Dollar Tax Credit continues to be available on parcels with improvements. Again, check your tax statements for accuracy.
-----DOG LICENSES-----
All dogs 6 months or older residing in the Town of Leroy MUST BE LICENSED!! Please keep license fees separate from tax payments. Dog license fees are due by March 31, 2022; however, a new or maturing dog can be licensed as required. If you have questions, please call.
Fees are:
Neutered Male / Spayed Female @ $3.00
Un-neutered Male / Un-spayed Female @ $8.00
Kennel License (Up to 12 dogs / $3.00 per dog after that) @ $35.00
No 2022 dog license will be issued until I personally SEE a copy of the Vet receipt showing the date of the last rabies vaccination and when the next shot is due. THIS IS CRITICAL!! Your vets will provide copies if you ask. Attempted payments without a rabies receipt will be returned or rejected. I will return Vet receipts along with issued licenses if requested.
LANDLORDS---PLEASE ADVISE TENANTS TO LICENSE THEIR DOGS!
----------DEADLINE REMINDER----------
