Property Taxes comprise approximately 50% of the City’s general fund revenue. Taxes are needed to provide city services to the citizens of the City of Maryville and are billed and collected annually by the City. The property tax calculation is based on the assessed value of property set by the Blount County Property Assessor and the tax rate set by City Council. 
​Rate - $1.63 per $100 assessed value
City Council deliberates property tax rates annually based on budget needs. 
​Assessment

IMPORTANT NOTICE:

Please do not pay your property tax and utility bill(s) in the same single payment transaction either by personal check or bank process as this will result in a delay of payment and a return of the property tax portion of the payment. Utility bills and property tax notices should be paid separately either by using the return envelopes provided by the City of Maryville or by credit card through the appropriate payment portals provided. As always, if you have questions, please contact Customer Service 865.273.3456.

Tax Notices are not required but sent as a courtesy reminder. Failure to receive a tax notice does not permit nonpayment of taxes. If you do not receive your notice, please notify our office immediately. Whether you or your mortgage company pays your taxes, you will receive a tax notice. Please notify the Blount County Property Assessor if your mailing address changes.

Property Tax Payment Important Information

Property tax payments must be received by the City and/or postmarked by United States Postal Service (USPS) by the due date to avoid penalties. The postmark dates is imperative and used to determine if the payment was mailed on or before the tax deadline.
​ 

If you choose to wait until just before the delinquent date to mail your payment, we suggest that you personally witness the postmark being placed on your envelope.  If a payment is received after the delinquent date with a late or missing postmark, the payment is considered late and penalties will be added. 
 
CAUTION:
When making payments through your bank or banking online systems, please schedule your payments accordingly to be sure your payments arrive by the due date.  Many times, these types of payments are sent by bulk mail using a permit imprint and do not include a postmark.
 
Also, when mailing your property tax payment, please do not include the payment with your utility payment, if mailing to the PO Box. The PO Box is for utility payments only.
