Georgetown town-county tax payments have a specific county route now, and it is the kind of detail that can make an old mailing label risky. Georgetown taxes are no longer collected by the Town of Georgetown Clerk. They are paid directly to Madison County, so the practical move is to follow the county payment lane rather than last year’s habit.
The payment choices are concrete: in person at the Treasurer’s Office in the County Office Building at 138 N. Court Street in Wampsville, online through Madison County’s Pay Taxes route, by mail to the Madison County Treasurer at P. O. Box 665 in Wampsville, or through the lobby lock box at the County Office Building. Those options are helpful when the bill year, parcel, amount, and deadline are lined up.
For a resident, treat the current county route as the source of truth before relying on an old bill note, saved address, or neighbor’s memory. If paying online, begin from Madison County rather than a search ad or email link. If mailing or dropping off payment, decide how you will prove timing and keep a copy of what you submit.
