Act 57 of 2022 allows taxpayers who fail to receive a tax notice during their first year of occupancy to apply for a waiver from penalties and additional costs from the tax collector. The state Department of Community and Economic Development is required to make a standard waiver form available. Here is a copy of the form. The Township passed a resolution confirming this during its meeting on November 3, 2022.
