Property owners have until Jan. 31 to make whole, or partial, payments on their 2011 property taxes. However, if you're looking for a deduction on your 2011 income taxes, those payments must be in by the end of the day today.

Fox Point residents can make payments at Village Hall, however they closed at noon today. Payments can still be left in the locked, tan-colored box in the Village Hall parking lot. You need to include a stamped, self-addressed envelope for the return of the receipt.

For Bayside residents, Village Hall is closed today, however residents can still make their payment at M&I Bank, 8740 N. Port Washington Rd.

Payments for residents in either village can also be made via credit card through the Official Payments Corporation at 1-888-272-9829. However, they do charge a convenience fee for making payments via credit card.
