Based on recently passed tax legislation, the Mt. Lebanon Tax Collector has received inquiries from residents regarding their ability to prepay their 2018 property taxes prior to the end of 2017. While the Municipality and the Tax Collector understand resident’s desire to prepay their taxes, current statute prohibits the collection of these taxes before they have been duly assessed. Taxes cannot be "duly" assessed because we will not receive the certified county assessment docket until late January or early February of 2018. Therefore, the prepayment of 2018 property taxes in 2017 is unfortunately not something that can be legally accommodated. The Municipality’s Solicitor has reviewed this matter and concurs with this position.
