Can I get an abatement?
If an owner of a motor vehicle thinks that he/she is entitled to an adjustment of his/her excise bill, it is strongly recommended that he/she pay the bill in full or provide necessary documents prior to the due date so it may adjusted and paid on time (due date does not change). NOTE: on unpaid excise tax bills, an owner risks incurring late fees and penalties. Abatements can be handled by contacting the Assessor's Office.
