Allentown Mayor Ray O’Connell has already extended the city's tax deadlines once. Now, thanks to a new state law, he'll be asking City Council to extend them again.
Previously, he real estate tax discount period from April 5 to May 5 and extended the filing due date for 2019 Business Privilege Tax until July 15, 2020. O'Connell plans to enlarge the tax discount period until August 31. Also, the payment can be made at any time until the end of the years without incurring any late fees.
“All of government is trying to do what it thinks is best during these most unusual times,” said O’Connell. “The stay-at-home order has severely impacted the ability to pay for many of our residents. We hope this extension will allow more time to get everybody back on their feet."
City Council has scheduled a special meeting for Monday, April 27 at 6:00 p.m. to vote to ratify the new real estate tax deadline and discount period extensions as well as the BPT filing extension.

Yea but they are still stealing from the neglected water system sold as a cover up of this particular farce. Bills are over three hundred dollars for one person occupied homes with claims of water leaks with no evidence in the home? Than there is the simple fact that the home is only occupied 1/2 the time as the wuhun has forced people to live in entirely different counties to feel safe from the infected drinking water.
Allentown is run by a rat just like the state wolf will not have a real press conference these people are bad for the country for many reasons
