Description

OAK CREEK, WI — On Tuesday, city officials are planning to entertain a resolution that would waive interest and penalties on late real estate property tax payments. According to Oak Creek Common Council meeting documents, city officials are seeking approval to authorize the City Treasurer to waive such penalties for payments with an installment due date of May 31 that are received after their due date and paid by Oct. 1. The Oak Creek Common Council plans to take up the resolution Tuesday night. The move in Oak Creek comes after officials on the Milwaukee County Board voted unanimously to allow the county's municipalities to waive interest and penalties so long as they're paid by Oct. 1. As a provision of the County Board's vote, municipalities such as Oak Creek would have to pass their own similar resolution to finalize the waiver.
