Public Announcement

Tax bills will be mailed the last week in May.  If you are a new homeowner or you are paying your own taxes for the first time because you have paid off your mortgage, please be sure we have your correct name and mailing address. Tax payments must be received or postmarked no later than July 2 to avoid penalty charges. After July 2, you will be assessed a 5% penalty, with an additional 1% every month thereafter. Please note that this is not a Village regulation but a New York State mandate. We cannot waive penalties even if you do not receive your bill. If you do not get a tax bill by June 8, please call the Village so we can issue you a duplicate bill.

The Village Office will be closed on Monday, July 3 in observance of Independence Day however tax payments may be left in the mail slot and will be received as a timely payment.

Despite the fact that this year’s Village election was uncontested, we had the best voter turnout in years.  The Mayor and Board of Trustees thank you for showing your support.  We all work very hard as unpaid volunteers to make Flower Hill the best that it can be.  We appreciate your vote of confidence!

Parking is prohibited on Village streets when two inches or more of snow has fallen or is in the forecast by the National Weather Service. Parking may be resumed when the snow has stopped falling and the roads are cleared.  It is a violation to shovel snow from your driveway back into the plowed street. If you have a fire hydrant on your property please remember that you are responsible for keeping it clear of snow and ice. If you are unable to do so, contact the Village office.

Mayor Phillips will be joining the State Senate as our representative from the 7th District. Please join us for a short ceremony and refreshments.
