Tax Delinquents Face Important Friday Deadline

From Potter County Today

Hundreds of Potter County real estate owners who still owe their 2008 taxes face a deadline of Friday, July 16, to avoid being publicly listed in the Tax Claim Bureau’s upset sale advertisement. The number of delinquent properties had been reduced to less than 400, as county personnel continue to make personal contacts with those who still owe, hoping to help them avoid added costs and public advertisement.

Potter County Tax Claim Bureau now accepts monthly installments on back taxes to make the redemption process easier for owner-occupied properties. Those who don’t make payment arrangements face the sale of their property to the highest bidder at the bureau’s Sept. 13 auction. The Tax Claim Bureau office is located in Suite 203 of the Gunzburger Building, 1 North Main Street, Coudersport PA 16915; telephone (814) 274-0488, option 1.
