About Us: 

    The Tax Collector’s Office has its responsibilities issued by the State of Connecticut General Statutes, along with the City of Danbury Ordinances. Under these statutes and ordinances, the Tax Collector annually mails 200,000 tax and utility bills and notices. 
    Each day taxpayers come to our office to pay bills or resolve questions related to their accounts. Cashiers greet taxpayers and inquire as to how we can serve them. Cashiers will process payments and help with general questions. Taxpayers requiring research or other information are directed into the office where an Account Clerk will have the taxpayer sit with them at their desk, and review what is needed. The Division takes pride in working efficiently and in providing the taxpayer with the information they request.


Our Accomplishments: 

    Every July, the office experiences its highest volume of taxpayers. The Division can service upwards of 1,000 taxpayers each day. In July 2008, the office worked to process taxpayers as quickly and efficiently as possible by utilizing a meet-and-greet approach while taxpayers were on line waiting to pay. It also posted an information board that provided general information for taxpayers. This allowed the Tax Collector to have some taxpayer issues resolved before they even arrived at the cashier window. This initiative kept the line moving effectively and quickly. The Division is happy to say it received many compliments for its services, which is the ultimate reward for the office staff. 

    For your convenience, taxpayers are currently able to pay their bills in person, by mail or by credit card, following the information provided on their bill. The Division anticipates the ability to have taxpayers pay online via check in the near future.
