There are several convenient ways for property owners to make payment.

2. By mail: Mailed payments must be U.S. postmarked by July 14, 2023, to avoid the statutory 10% penalty for late payment. A private meter is not valid for establishing the date of payment.
3. Online or by phone: Tax bills can be paid online or by phone through a secure payment service provided by ACI Payments, Inc. Taxpayers will need their parcel number on hand.

Main St. in downtown Akron during regular business hours, Monday through Friday from 7:30 am-4:00 pm. Any payments made through the drop box that create an overage will be applied to the next tax bill.
