Motor Vehicle bills are due in July in full but Motor Vehicle Supplemental bills are due in January in full. Please do not wait till the last moment, because bad storms close down Town Hall, or power goes out and computers won’t work, or emergencies could occur shutting down the Tax Office. Only two people can clear a delinquent MV bill with the DMV and if we each are out due to an emergency, you will not get cleared with DMV till one of us is back in the office. Paying MV bills on time is the best solution to this possibility not causing you any delay or problem registering a MV.
