Anticipated “Stay at Home” public health orders

The goal of these orders is to reduce the rate of spread of COVID-19 in the community. We anticipate public announcement of these orders this week, potentially as early as Wednesday morning. We want to ensure that these policies are crafted to be effective and are as consistent as possible across our communities.” – Jeff Zayach, Boulder County Public Health Executive Director

Late Payment & Delinquent Interest Policy for Property Tax Payments

  • MARCH 24, 2020, 1:18 PM
  • NEWS

With Executive Order D 2020 012, Governor Jared Polis authorized the county treasurers within Colorado to suspend or waive delinquent interest that may accrue as a result of delinquent tax payments for 30 days.

Many taxpayers had planned to make full payments of property taxes by April 30, but with the changing circumstances due to COVID-19, this may now be very difficult for many taxpayers. From now until April 20, the Boulder County Treasurer’s Office will accept delinquent 1st half payments (originally due March 2) without interest. The second half payment of property taxes will be due June 15.
