Grant County tax statements mailed
STAFF REPORT | Hagadone News Network | UPDATED 3 years, 8 months AGO
EPHRATA — Grant County property owners who have not received tax statements by today should contact the Grant County Treasurer’s Office, according to a press release from the GCTO.
Grant County Treasurer Darryl Pheasant wrote that tax statements have been mailed, including statements to landowners with delinquent taxes and assessments. Treasurer’s office employees are working on amended statements for property owners who made changes after the original statements were written, he wrote.
Current and back-year tax information is available on the Grant County website, www.grantcountywa.gov, under the Treasurer tab. It’s under “Parcel Information'' on the treasurer’s page.
Half-year or full-year tax payments are due by May 1. Normally they’re due by April 30, but in 2023 that’s on a weekend, Pheasant wrote. A drop box for payments is located in the parking lot at the Grant County Courthouse, 25 C St. NW, Ephrata, and will be opened this month.
