My tax statement shows I am being charged interest and other fees. What does that mean?

According to our records, there are past due taxes in your name or on the parcel or property in question. Call (203) 775-7304 with questions. We try to list all delinquent taxes owed on your Tax Statement, however, some circumstances force multiple delinquent statements. Delinquent taxes and interest must be paid in full before payment on current bills can be accepted. Any payment you send in toward your current taxes will be applied to the back taxes.
