The Town of Oyster Bay is opening up walk-up windows for those who wish to make their tax payments in-person ahead of the June 1st deadline for school property tax payments on Friday, May 8 at Town Hall North in Oyster Bay and on Wednesday, May 13 at Town Hall South in Massapequa.
Residents can visit these sites from 10a.m. to 2 p.m. daily, Monday through Friday and pay their second half school taxes by check or money order.
With the Covid-19 pandemic having a negative effect on residents throughout the state, most local governments have restricted or fully suspended in-person interactions at their facilities. These new walk-up windows will offer residents a safe option within which to make their payments in-person during this public health crisis.
“The safety and well-being of our residents has been the town's top priority throughout all this, and that is why my office will be offering a safe option to make in-person tax payments with our new walk-up windows, where strict social distancing will be enforced.,” Receiver of Taxes Jeffrey Pravato said. “For those who wish to avoid making an in-person payment, I remind residents to take advantage of the ability to pay online by eCheck for a reduced fee, which my office negotiated to help mitigate in-person interaction during this pandemic."
The office can be reached by phone at (516) 624-6400.
