Who mails the Tax Sale Notice to the taxpayer?

• A. Collector
• B. Clerk
• C. Treasurer
• D. Attorney

Answer: (A)

The key idea is that the tax collector’s office handles communications related to tax delinquencies and tax sales. When taxes become delinquent, the collector prepares and mails the Tax Sale Notice to the taxpayer, laying out the amount due, sale date, and any redemption rights. This notice is a formal step in the collection process, giving the taxpayer a chance to address the unpaid taxes. Other offices have different roles—clerk may manage records, the treasurer handles funds, and an attorney handles legal action—while the mailing of the notice itself is typically the collector’s responsibility.
