Corning changes tax lien policy for delinquent water, sewer bills
The city has changed how it will put tax liens on properties for delinquent water or sewer bills. If a bill is unpaid and less than $200, the city will not put a lien on the property as a consequence. The City Council met Dec. 14 to discuss putting tax liens on 118 properties for delinquent water or sewer accounts. As of Nov. 30, the combined total owed from all the properties was $138,665.47. Due to the pandemic, the city cannot shut off water services.
