The Township Council voted Monday night to extend the due date for third-quarter tax bills to Aug. 23.

The bills have not been sent out yet.

Business Administrator Tom Cardis explained during Monday's Council meeting that the township was awaiting its municipal aid figure from Trenton before it could strike a tax rate and send out the bills.

The aid figure came in last Thursday afternoon, he said.

"Our bills will be out by the end of this week," Cardis said.

Bills paid by Aug. 23 will not incur any penalties or late fees. Bills paid after Aug. 23 will, however, incur interest from Aug. 1 until the date of payment, according to the resolution.

Aug. 1 is the regular due date for third-quarter tax bills.
