When are tax statements mailed?

Tax amounts for the current year are generally available the first week of February. Statements are typically mailed on or around February 28. These dates are subject to change without notice. Irrigation, Personal Property, and Storm Water Utility statements are mailed with Real Property Tax statements. If you do not receive your statement(s) by March 15, please contact our office to verify your mailing address.

If property was purchased after tax statements were mailed, the Treasurer’s office will mail a "courtesy statement" to the new owner at the address provided at the time the sale was recorded.

Special assessment statement dates are set by the specific district and vary. Please contact our office for further information.

Taxpayer Responsibility

Under Washington law, it is the taxpayer’s responsibility to ensure their taxes are paid. Failure to receive a statement does not excuse interest or penalties on delinquent tax or assessment amounts.
