Tax Collector Bogota, NJ BOROUGH OF BOGOTA BOROUGH TAX COLLECTOR > DEPARTMENTS > TAX COLLECTOR > Key Contact Borough Tax Collector Andrea Tarantula Office Address 375 Larch Avenue Bogota, New Jersey 07603 Telephone 201-342-1736 x228 eMail Contact CLICK HERE Office Hours Monday - Thursday 8:30am - 4:00pm Friday 8:00am - 12:00pm Helpful Information Here is some helpful information about your Real Estate Tax Payments: Your tax bill is divided into four payments. The bottom stubs are for the 3rd and 4th quarter payments of the current year and the top stubs are for the 1st and 2nd quarter payments (estimated) of the following year. The color of the tax bill will also change yearly. Taxes are due February 1, May 1, August 1, and November 1 of each year. There is a 10 day grace period before interest is added. Interest is calculated at 8% for the 1st $1,500.00 that is delinquent and 18% for any amount above that. Any property tax delinquency exceeding ten thousand dollars ($10,000.00) at is subject to a six percent (6 %) year end penalty. As a statutory officer of the State of New Jersey, the tax collector is obligated to follow all state statutes regarding property tax collection, including billing, due dates, interest on delinquent tax payments, and tax sale procedures. The tax collector is required by state law to hold a tax sale each year for the prior year's unpaid municipal charges. If you do not pay your property taxes, a lien will be sold against the property for any unpaid taxes owed from the previous year.. Your property is not sold at the tax sale; a lien is placed on it. As needed, the Tax Office will mail delinquent notices to you as a reminder. However, interest charges have already been added and must be paid. Interest amounts change daily so it is important that you call the Tax Office for the current up-to-date amount that is owed, otherwise, your account will be left with an open principal balance. By November 11th of the current year, if you have any unpaid delinquent taxes, your property will be subject to a tax sale and a lien may be placed on your home or property. Remember, it is your responsibility to pay your Real Estate Taxes on time. By law, the Tax Office must collect interest on delinquencies. If you need assistance in understanding the breakdown of your tax bill, please do not hesitate to visit the Tax Office at Borough Hall or call (201-342-1736 ext. 229) and I will be more than happy to assist you. A tax payment box is conveniently located next to the main entrance at Borough Hall for after hours tax payment drop-offs. Please place your property tax check in the secure drop box on nights, weekends or whenever the Tax Office is closed. Andrea Tarantula Borough Tax Collector

Terrorism All Municipalities in the country must have an Emergency Operations Plan, which is the responsibility of the local Emergency Management Coordinator. This plan details all types of emergencies and the responsibilities of all local Emergency Services during declared state of emergencies. This plan must be undated every four (4) years and approved by the State of New Jersey. The Bogota Emergency Operations Plan was completely revised in 2009 and was approved by the State and placed in service in June of 2009. After the disastrous events of September 11, 2001, the State requested all local OEM’s to prepare and submit for approval, a Terrorism Plan for their community. The annex details the responsibilities of all Emergency Services during a terrorism incident, sets up an Emergency Management Command Post, and details what outside services should be called. A terrorism incident is a Law Enforcement function and therefore, the Bogota Police Department is the lead agency in any response to such an incident. OEM will coordinate all involved agencies. Emergency Operations Center The Bogota Emergency Operations Center is the Borough Wide Command Post for emergency operations during any major incident, involving all Emergency Services. There are three (3) different Operation Centers, which are staffed, depending on the type of incident being managed. Incident Type: Large Scale Incident Which Affects the Entire Borough For these incidents, where all Borough Agencies, County and State Agencies are assisting. The Emergency Operations Center will be activated at the Bogota Emergency Operations Center at 69 W. Broad Street. The following personnel will report to the Center: The Mayor, Emergency Management Coordinator, Police Chief, Fire Chief, Rescue Chief, Public Works representative and any out-of-town personnel required by the Coordinator. Incident Type: Out of Town Incidents where Bogota Emergency Services are Requested. For an incident where the Bogota Emergency Services were requested to assist in other locations, out of the borough, and protective services were required locally, the Emergency Operations Center will be activated and maintained by committed personnel. Incident Type: Single Location Incidents within the Borough For a large-scale incident, which is confined to one location or one section of the borough. The Emergency Operations Center will be operated at the scene, using the Emergency Management Coordinators vehicle, which is equipped to communicate to all Borough, County and State Emergency Services. In these cases, as needed the following personnel will report to the Mobile OEM Command Center The Mayor, Emergency Management Coordinator, Police Chief, Fire Chief, Rescue Chief, Public Works representative and any out-of-town personnel required by the Coordinator. Transporting Pets to an Evacuation Site Birds Transport in a secure travel cage or carrier. Try to keep the carrier in a quiet area. Do not let the birds out of the cage or carrier. In cold weather, wrap a blanket over the carrier and warm up the car before placing birds inside. During warm weather, carry a plant mister to mist the bird’s feathers periodically. Do not put water inside the carrier during transport. Provide a few slices of fresh fruits and vegetables with high water content. Have leg bands and a photo for ID. Snakes Snakes can be transported in a pillowcase, but they must be transferred to a more secure housing when the reach the evacuation site. If your snakes require frequent feedings, carry food with you. Take a water bowl large enough for soaking as well as a heating pad. When transporting house lizards, follow the same directions as for birds. Small Mammals Hamsters, gerbils etc... should be transported in secure carriers suitable for maintaining the animals while sheltered. Take bedding materials, food, bowls and water bottles. A Few Days After a Disaster In the first few days after a disaster, leash your pets when they go outside. Always maintain close contact. Familiar scents and landmarks may be altered and your pet may become confused and lost. The behavior of your pets may change after an emergency. Normally quiet and friendly pets may become aggressive or defensive. Watch animals closely. Leash dogs and place them in a fenced yard with access to shelter and water.
