Payment Options

IN PERSON PAYMENTS
Payments can be made in person at the township office.  The office hours are Monday through Friday, 8:00 am to 5:00 pm.  Payments can be made by check, money order, or cash.  Payment by cash must be made with the exact dollar and change amount.  The township office does not carry change for tax payments.  Checks are preferred. Payments can also be made after regular office hours by utilizing the drop box located in the pillar at the front entrance of the township building.

MAIL PAYMENTS
Payments can be mailed to the township office.  Your cancelled check can act as a receipt.  If an additional receipt is required, return the entire bill and a self-addressed stamped envelope.   Postmarks are not accepted as on-time payments.  Any payment received after the due date will have interest and penalty applied. There is no grace period.

CREDIT CARD PAYMENTS
Credit card payments can be made through ACI Payments Inc.  The township does not accept credit card payments in person.  ACI Payments offers this service for a fee.  This option is offered beginning July 1 through February 28.  ACI Payments Inc. can be reached at 800-272-9829 or www.acipayonline.com.  Both options require the Grand Rapids Jurisdiction Code:  3231.
