Scott Lunsford, Escambia County Tax Collector, reminds everyone that the one percent discount on the payment of real estate and tangible personal property taxes ends Saturday, February 29.
To receive the one percent discount, payments must be:
- made online by midnight, CST, February 29, at EscambiaTaxCollector.com;
- mailed with a February postmark; or
- left by midnight, CST, February 29, in a 24-hour drop box available at all locations.
Since all offices are closed on February 29 and March 1, customers, who make their payment in person at any tax collector office on Monday, March 2, will receive the one percent discount.
