The Finance Department is responsible for billing services that are provided by the Township and for collecting all revenues. The department collects current real and personal property tax bills. Although, the Building and Public Safety Departments collect fees for services provided, the finance department is responsible for the proper processing and recording of the receipts.

The Township currently bills for sewer, rubbish and water on a monthly basis.

Once a tax bill becomes delinquent, the resident is required to pay the tax bill at the Berrien County Treasurer's Office.
