Property Tax Newsletter
Representatives of the Township of Hardyston and the Borough of Franklin continue to meet on a monthly basis to discuss additional opportunities for shared service and to explore ways to improve existing shared service agreements.
Since July 2000 the Township and Borough of Franklin have operated a joint tax collection office out of the Franklin Municipal Building located on Main Street in the Borough.
Recently the joint tax collection office installed a secure drop box in front of the Franklin Municipal Building. The box can be utilized by Township and Borough residents to drop off tax payments after hours and on weekends.
Hardyston residents can now pay their taxes electronically through Official Payments Corporation.
( A small service charge is added to each electronic payment.) Credit card tax payments can also be made via telephone by contacting Official Payments at 1-800-272-9829. Jurisdiction code is 4042.
