§ 14918 Special Assessment Tax Enforcement

• •The rules for collecting county taxes also apply to special assessment taxes.
• •If the county has a way to make sure people pay their regular taxes, they can use the same way for these special taxes.
• •No new or different rules are needed for these special taxes.

If your county sends you a bill for regular property taxes and you don’t pay, they can take money from your paycheck or put a lien on your house.

The same thing can happen if you don’t pay a special tax, like one for a new sidewalk in your neighborhood. The county can use the same methods to make sure you pay.
