DELINQUENT PROPERTY TAX NOTICES MAILED
Kern County Treasurer and Tax Collector, Jordan Kaufman announced the recent mailing of Delinquency Notices to property owners who have not paid their property taxes. Mr. Kaufman advises property owners to pay their delinquent taxes on or before 5 p.m. on June 30, 2024, in order to avoid incurring additional penalties. If the delinquent date falls on a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday, the hour of delinquency is 5 p.m. on the next business day. If property taxes are not paid by 5 p.m. on June 30, 2024, the parcel will be placed in a “tax-defaulted” status and will be subject to public auction after five (5) years of delinquency.
