The bill allows each municipality to accept payment of taxes, penalties, interest, and fees by credit card, charge card, debit card, or an electronic payment service. The municipality may charge the taxpayer a service fee for any such payment made by card or electronic payment service, as long as the fee does not exceed any charge by the card issuer or electronic payment service provider. The bill also specifies that payments by card or electronic payment service must be made at the times and under the conditions prescribed by the municipality. Additionally, the bill clarifies that the debt incurred through the payment of taxes by card or electronic payment service is not considered a tax collectible under section 12-172.
