Property tax due dates extended in Grafton

Grafton residents will receive a temporary relief from property taxes after the Select Board voted to extend the due date until June 29.

“You have the ability to offset and give some relief to those in need by adopting this,” Town Administrator Tim McInerney said.

Under Chapter 53 of the state Acts of 2020, adopted due to the COVID-19 pandemic, towns have the ability to both extend the due date for real estate and personal property taxes and waive interest and penalties for late payments.
