- Tax payments can be mailed. Those payments must be U.S. postmarked by November 26, 2014.
- Taxes can be paid online or by phone with a credit card or e-check. Payments are processed by Official Payments Corp., which charges a nominal service fee. This fee does not come back to the county in any way.
- In-person cash payments can be made through MoneyGram, a new payment service offered at 35,000 locations nationwide. MoneyGram payments are processed through Official Payments Corp., which charges a nominal service fee and provides guaranteed same-day transactions.
