What is being done to collect delinquent taxes?
Collection of past due accounts are enforced by use of the various remedies available under the law, including: withholding and/or suspension of motor vehicle registrations; filing of tax liens; sale of real property at public auction (tax sale); levy and seizure of taxable goods and chattels, with subsequent sale and distribution; withholding, suspension or revocation of licenses or permits required in the operation of a business, including health permits; denial of building permits on delinquent property; and garnishment of wages. Also: Seizure of assets; seizure of bank accounts; issuance of alias tax warrants for collection by marshal or constable; initiation of suit to collect or foreclosure proceedings; and assignment of tax liens. The Bethel Tax office is sincerely committed to the efficient collection of past due taxes.
