||| FROM SAN JUAN COUNTY COMMUNICATIONS |||
San Juan County Treasurer, Rhonda Pederson would like to remind county property owners that the second half property taxes and personal property taxes are due Monday, October 31.
Payments received in person, via our secure payment box or postmarked after the October 31 deadline are automatically charged 1% interest on outstanding balances. PLEASE plan ahead to avoid interest charges. Our secure payment drop box is located at the Court House entrance on the Sheriff side of the building. If mailing your payment, the envelope must be federally postmarked on or before October 31 for the payment to be considered on time. Keep in mind, although you place your payment in the mailbox, federal postmarks often happen the next business day. If mailing your payment less than a week prior to the deadline, we strongly recommend having your envelope hand canceled by the postal agent.
Mailed payments may be addressed to:
San Juan County Treasurer
PO Box 639
Friday Harbor, WA 98250
