Property Tax Payment Processing Update

New Handheld Scanner for Property Tax Payments

Greendale Township has implemented a new handheld barcode scanner to improve the accuracy and efficiency of processing property tax payments. This upgrade is an important step in ensuring that every resident’s payment is posted correctly, quickly, and with fewer opportunities for error.

To make this system work as intended, we need your help.

🔍 Please Bring Your Property Tax Stub with Every Payment

Your property tax bill includes a barcode located on the payment stub. This barcode is essential for several reasons:

  • Accurate Posting: Scanning the barcode eliminates the need to manually type a 14‑digit parcel number, greatly reducing the chance of errors.
  • Faster Service: Scanning is significantly quicker than manual entry, helping us keep lines short and processing times efficient.
  • Correct Property Identification: The barcode ensures your payment is applied to the correct parcel—especially important for residents who own multiple properties.
  • Reconciliation & Recordkeeping: The stub is used to verify information, resolve discrepancies, and attach receipts for cash payments.
  • Cash Payment Tracking: When paying with cash, your receipt will be attached directly to the stub for secure tracking and audit purposes.

⛔ Why We Must Have Your Stub

While we understand that things happen and bills get misplaced, the stub is a required part of the payment process. Without it:

  • Processing takes longer
  • The risk of posting errors increases
  • Additional supplies and printing costs are incurred
  • Staff must stop to reprint a bill, which slows down service for everyone

We are always willing to reprint a bill when absolutely necessary, but we kindly ask residents to help us reduce unnecessary delays and expenses by bringing the original stub when paying in person whenever possible, or by including it with your mail-in payment.

🙏 Thank You for Your Cooperation

These improvements are designed to serve you better and keep township operations running smoothly. Your attention to bringing the tax stub with your payment—whether paying by mail, drop box, in person, or with cash—helps us maintain accuracy, efficiency, and responsible stewardship of township resources.
