Does the City of Detroit have any programs to help citizens pay their taxes?
The City of Detroit may grant a “hardship” exemption to qualifying citizens. For more information on this program contact the Assessors’ Division at (313) 224-6674. Additionally, the Treasury Division has instituted a Senior Property Tax Deferred Payment Program. This program allows qualified seniors to defer their Summer and Winter property tax payments to February 15. You may obtain an application at your Neighborhood City Hall or in Room 136 of the Coleman A. Young Municipal Center.
