The City of Saginaw bills property taxes twice a year. July 1st and December 1st.
The July (summer) (City bill) bill is due on/or before July 31st . If the 31st falls on a Saturday or Sunday, then the due date would be the next business day. On August 1st penalty and interest are added.
Following is the penalty and interest schedule:
The penalty and interest are figured on the unpaid balance. The July bill can be paid in the Treasurer's Office at Saginaw City Hall until February 28th . On March 1st any unpaid taxes are transferred to the Saginaw County Treasurer, 111 South Michigan Avenue, Saginaw, MI 48602 (989) 790-5225.
The December (winter) (County) bill is mailed December 1st and is due on/or before February 14th. If the 14th falls on a Saturday or Sunday, then the due date is the next business day. On February 15th a penalty is added to the unpaid bills. The penalty is a flat 3% fee. The City of Saginaw charges a 1% administration fee for the billing and collection of the taxes.
Example:
December tax bill $125.95
Admin Fee $1.26
total winter bill $127.21
Penalty 3% $3.78 (125.95 x 3%)
To figure the penalty, you would take the December tax bill of $125.95 and multiply by 4%. You do not include the administration fee in your calculation. Your total winter bill with penalty would be $132.25. ($125.95 + 1.26 + 5.04)
