My name is Catherine Tress and I am the Property Tax Collector of our community. Stephanie Lattanzio is the deputy property Tax Collector for the office and works part-time as my employee.
As a Pennsylvania Qualified Tax Collector, it is my pleasure to serve this community and assist every taxpayer to the best of my ability within the authority and legal powers of this office. In addition to providing residents and businesses with important tax information and professional service, one of the primary functions of any community tax collector is to be the independent collecting agent for a municipality and school district under Pennsylvania law. A tax collector does not set property assessment values, tax millage rates or collection due dates and does not have the ability to reduce penalties, delinquent fees or accept payments once the property has been turned over to the delinquent tax collecting agency.

IMPORTANT: ONLY THE CURRENT TAX YEAR is permitted to be collected in the local Moon Township Property Tax Office. After December 31, all delinquent and unpaid taxes are to be turned over to the delinquent tax collection agency depending on the tax. For Moon Township (municipal) taxes, the agency is Keystone Municipal Collections. For the Moon Area School District taxes, the agency is Law Office of IRA Weiss. Once that occurs, additional costs will be added to the 10% penalty amount of the tax by those agencies for their collection services which could increase your bill significantly.
