- A Note About Payments:
- Payment By Check or Money Order:
- Payments can be made at the treasury's counter or by utilizing the City Hall dropbox located on the East side of City Hall to the right of the entrance door. Please place the remittance copy of your taxes, miscellaneous invoices, or water bill in an envelope with your check or money order.
- Payment By Cash:
- With City Hall open to the public, cash is NO LONGER ACCEPTED via dropbox or mail. If you would like to pay by cash, you can come into City Hall and pay at the treasury counter.
- Pay Online or By Phone:
- Please see the webpage www.berkleymich.org/paymybill for online and/or telephone payment instructions to make payments via credit card. Other fees are applicable for credit card payments.
- Payment By Check or Money Order:
- Property Transfer Forms, Tax Deferment Forms, and Treasurer Correspondence:
- The best and most time-efficient option for Property Transfer Affidavit forms is to scan or take a clear picture of all of the signed forms and email them to treasury@berkleymich.net. Those forms will then be processed and a date-stamped copy will be scanned and returned to you via your email address.
- Tax Deferment forms and any required documentation can also be scanned or a clear picture is taken and emailed to the email address above.
- Another option for sending in these forms is to place the signed documents in an envelope and place them in the dropbox for processing by the Treasurer’s Office. Please make sure all forms are properly signed and leave an email address to scan and return copies of the stamped forms.
- Lastly, you may also leave a self-addressed stamped envelope if you want hard copies returned by US mail (City of Berkley Treasurer; 3338 Coolidge Hwy Berkley, MI 48072).
