Thank you Hayes Taxpayers!
A note from Hayes Township Treasurer Julie Collard: Once again, the residents of Hayes Township have made it past another tax season successfully, and ended with a matching settlement & smooth closing. Shoutout to the amazing ladies in the Charlevoix County Treasurer Office–they are on the ball, put up with a lot of garbage, yet maintain both their sense of humors and good nature.
I truly appreciate the notes & cards through the tax season. It warms my heart in the cold winter months and always brings a smile to my face. Thank you for the outstanding communication through the season. Please remember I’m always here to assist you, year round.
As we prepare for Summer Tax season (!!!) I will be posting frequently asked questions as well as helpful hints to navigate your tax bills. However, I’ll let spring make it’s way to Hayes Township first.
Have a wonderful weekend!
End of Tax Season Information
A Note From Our Treasurer:
I will be in the office on Monday, March 2, from 9am-5pm to process any summer/winter 2025 taxes still owing. If you would like to make an alternate payment, you can put a check in the mail (I accept postmarks), drop a payment in the drop box (in front of Hayes Township Hall), or make an on-line payment through B,S,&A on the township website.
Aren’t sure you paid your taxes? You can start the pay on-line process, and it will show your current balance. If you have paid, it will show a zero balance, and then you can just close out of the prompts. I have processed and deposited every payment that has been submitted through yesterday evening. I will process all remaining received payments on Monday, and be depositing all of those payments on Tuesday. All postmarked payments received after March 2nd will be processed, with the absolute last day for a postmarked payment to arrive March 8, 2026. After that, all payments will be sent to the Charlevoix County Treasurer.
Thank you & have a great weekend!–Julie Collard, Hayes Township Treasurer
