PAXTON Taxpayers should not wait until Feb. 1 to stop by town hall and pay their taxes. Town offices are closed until Feb. 1, and taxes are due then.
Selectmen decided at the board’s Jan. 11 meeting to keep town hall closed until Feb. 1 as part of the effort to slow the spread of COVID-19.
“We’ve already had people knocking” at the town hall seeking to pay taxes, board executive assistant Donna Graf-Parsons said.
Town Administrator Carol Riches said the bills include coupons for bills due Feb. 1 and May 3.
Taxpayers can mail in paper bills with payment or drop them at town hall in the box at the bottom of the stairs. Riches said a camera is trained on the box for security. Taxes can also be paid online.
