Jasper County property tax deadline two weeks away

JASPER COUNTY, Mo. — Reminder to Missouri residents when it comes to those property taxes — the deadline is fifteen days from now.

Some folks, today, were knocking them out early at the Jasper County Courthouse.

Folks can also pay by mail, through a dropbox at the courthouse, or take care of them online.

Another reminder — don't be late.

"When you pay late, you're going to incur interest and penalty charges you're going to have to pay. It's in the law, it's not my idea. But it's in the law and has to be paid," said Steve McIntosh, Jasper Co. Collector.

If you plan on mailing in your payment, McIntosh says it's a good idea to do it a day or two before the deadline.

The online option will be available until midnight of the 31st.
