Bernalillo County Treasurer, Patrick Padilla, mailed over 270,000 property tax bills on November 1. “Property owners in Bernalillo County should be receiving their bills,” says Treasurer Padilla. “The 2007 property tax rolls are available on line and we have established several methods property owners can use to pay their tax bill.”
The first half of the property tax bill becomes delinquent after December 10, 2007, after which time penalty & interest will be assessed.
