PAYMENT OF SECOND INSTALLMENT OF PROPERTY TAXES
The 2nd installment is due by July 31st each year and is payable to the Trempealeau County Treasurer. The payment must be mailed to: Trempealeau County Courthouse, Attn: County Treasurer, 18600 Hobson Street, Whitehall, WI 54773.
A note about installment payments:
Missing one installment can be very costly to the taxpayer, because by law the County must charge interest of 1% per month. If you miss paying the 1st installment on time, you lose the 2nd installment option. All taxes become immediately due and will continue to accrue interest until paid in full. If you miss paying the 2nd installment by July 31st, you will be charged interest back to February 1st. The law does not allow the County to forgive any interest penalties no matter what the reason is for not making a timely payment. If you are unable to pay the amount of taxes due at that time, it is always best to pay whatever you can and then contact your County Treasurer to set up a payment plan. The County Treasurer can be reached at (715)538-2311, Ext 219.
