Property tax collection is the main function of the Bloomfield Township Treasurer's Office. While the actual assessed and taxable values of property are determined in the Assessor's Office, the tax billings and collections originate from the Treasurer's Office. All money transactions involving real property and personal property taxes, special assessments, water bills and other departments are processed through the Treasurer's Office. Questions involving balances, amounts, dates, and payment inquiries concerning tax bills, water and sewer bills and special assessments should be directed to this office.
Beware of Tax Scams
ALERT: Michigan taxpayers with past-due tax debts should be aware of an aggressive scam that’s making the rounds through the U.S. Postal Service, according to the Michigan Department of Treasury. For details about this scam click here.
The Michigan Department of Treasury is warning taxpayers of fraudulent phone calls being made to taxpayers from a “spoofing” phone number. This number has the appearance of being from the Department of Treasury. In this scam the taxpayer is told they owe money and must pay immediately. The Bloomfield Township Treasurer’s Office has heard from homeowners who have received calls saying they had not paid their property taxes and would lose their home unless they immediately send money. If you receive a call like this, NEVER send money. Notify the Police Department, and always check with the Treasurer’s Office if you have any questions about whether you owe back property taxes.
