Tax Information

Real Estate Tax Collector for the Borough of Sewickley Heights and the Quaker Valley School District:

Tax Bills:

Borough tax bills are mailed May 15 of each year and are discounted 2% until July 15; are due at face from July 16 until September 15; become delinquent after September 15, and are assessed a 10% penalty.  Taxes delinquent over six months may be assessed interest and penalty charges and a $250 lien satisfaction fee. If the Borough would place any property on Sheriff's Sale, all attorney fees would be borne by the property owner.

Non-receipt of a tax bill does not preclude your obligation to pay the tax.

Please inform the Allegheny County Change of Address Department of any change in the mailing address for tax bills by calling 412-350-4107, or by using our link to the Allegheny County web site (go to the drop-down menu on the left, to the Property Assessments Department).
