Taxes are assessed July 1. Taxpayers receive a 2% discount if they pay by August 31. Payment at full face value is accepted through October 31 and a 10% penalty must be added to the tax bill for any payment received after October 31.
Installment Due Dates
Each year the Blackhawk Board of School Directors will approve a resolution regarding the tax collection and school property tax installment payments as required by Act 1. These payments are due in equal installments on July 31st, October 31st and December 31st. Installments are calculated using the face amount. Taxpayers who choose to pay in installments DO NOT qualify for the 2% discount, and any late payment will result in the penalty being applied to the total face amount.
- Homestead/Farmstead Exemption
Property tax bills will be reduced for qualified homeowners in the district under the homestead/farmstead property tax relief program. This program is funded through the distribution of a portion of gaming funds provided from taxes on the slots and casinos throughout the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. This property tax reduction will only occur if the Commonwealth can distribute the necessary amount of gaming funds.
NOTE: The tax reduction will not be distributed as a check, it will appear as a reduced assessment line item thus reducing the tax due directly on the property tax bills.
To qualify, the property must be an owner-occupied residence and the property owner must have filed and received approval via a homestead exemption application with the County by March 1. To obtain an application, please visit the following links to the Homestead exemption applications and additional information:
