i paid real property taxes at quezon city hall yesterday. we usually pay previous year's taxes within the first quarter of the following year but last november 17, while waiting for the green light at the intersection of EDSA and quezon avenue, my mom and i saw being flashed on this electronic board a reminder to pay real property taxes by december 31, 2017 to avail of the 20% discount. we thought the message was an official statement from the local government as it was part of the presentation citing quezon city's awards among others being played on loop onscreen.
well, it turns out deadline for the discount is still march 31.
a public relations officer at the payment venue said quezon city government personnel were currently meeting about it as they have been receiving a lot of calls regarding the deadline. she said the message will be corrected within the day.
i have yet to pass that way again so i don't know whether the reminder has been updated.
anyway, that electronic board was supposed to be informative. it turned out to be misleading.
next time *review*.
