School Tax Information

It’s that time of year again…… School Taxes will be here next week!  The Town of Mendon Clerk’s Office will be accepting payments (for Mendon residents only) during normal business hours.

Things to remember:

  • ONLINE BANK PAYMENTS: Most banks discourage the use of on-line banking for tax payments because they cannot guarantee your payment will be delivered to our office by the due date.  If you utilize on-line banking, you do so at your own risk.
  • PAYMENT BY MAIL: The U.S. postmark on the payment envelope will be used to determine the date of payment and the amount of interest or late payment charges due for that payment.  School tax payments delivered by the U.S. Postal Service after the due date that do not contain an official U.S. Postal Postmark but rather a “postage meter” mark are not considered timely.  Payments with insufficient interest or late payment charges will be returned to you.
  • FULL PAYMENT: Please follow these instructions.
    • SEPT 1 – OCT 1: Pay Total amount of bill to Michelle Booth, Rec of Taxes 16 West Main St. Honeoye Falls, NY 14472.
    • OCT 2 – OCT 31: Add 2% late payment charge to total tax due.  Mail to: Michelle Booth, Rec of Taxes 16 West Main St. Honeoye Falls, NY 14472.
    • NOV 1 – NOV 18Add 5% late payment charge to total tax due. Make checks payable to “Monroe County Treasurer“, PO Box 14420, Rochester, NY 14614 or pay in person at 39 W. Main St., Room B-2, Rochester.
  • INSTALLMENT PAYMENTSYou elect to pay taxes by installments upon remittance of your first installment payment.  The service charge must be paid with all installment payments.  To pay by installment, follow the instructions below:
    • 1st INSTALLMENT: Pay 1st installment by September 15 to  Michelle Booth, Rec of Taxes 16 West Main St. Honeoye Falls, NY 14472.
    • SEPT 16 – 20: Add 1% to installment amount due.  If the 1st installment is not paid by September 20, the installment plan is no longer available.  The full amount of school tax must be paid. (see full payment instructions above)
    • 2nd & 3rd INSTALLMENTS: ARE PAID WITH FEES TO THE MONROE COUNTY TREASURER, PO Box 14420, Rochester, NY 14614 or pay in person at 39 W. Main St., Room B-2, Rochester.  Call Treasury at 753-1200 if you have any questions on amount due.

NO PAYMENTS WILL BE ACCEPTED AFTER NOVEMBER 18.

Proposed Sidewalk Study – Hamlet of Mendon

This study has been developed to evaluate the engineering-related considerations of constructing new sidewalks along existing roadways within the Town of Mendon, Monroe County, New York, including the following segments:
• Pittsford-Mendon Road (NY Route 64): Assembly Drive to Pittsford Federal Credit Union
• Mendon-Ionia Road (NY Route 64): Route 251 to Taylor Road
• Victor-Mendon Road (NY Route 251): Route 64 to Mile Square Road
• Mile Square Road (County Road 70): Lehigh Valley Trail to Taylor Road
• Taylor Road: Route 64 to Route 251
Existing sidewalks are present along NY Route 64 and NY Route 251 in the immediate hamlet area.
This study focuses on the portion of the subject corridors without existing sidewalks, where new sidewalks would be constructed. The existing sidewalks would be connected to and are assumed to remain in place.

The full study can be found here.
