Okaloosa County Tax Collector Ben Anderson encourages property owners to participate in a tax installment plan.
Plan members can receive a 3.375 percent discount and payments can be divided into four payments over a year.
Taxpayers must complete an application to participate in the plan. The application, due April 30, can be found in the “Form Center” on the tax collector website.
Those who choose the installment method will pay based on an estimated tax equal to the actual taxes for the previous year.
The payment schedule is as follows:
•First installment due June 30
•Second installment, Sept. 30
•Third installment, Dec. 31
•Fourth installment, March 31
