Summary of Request

In accordance with California Revenue and Taxation Code Sections 2610.5 and 2910.1, the Tax Collector is required to mail tax bills on or before November 1st for each property on the Secured (real property) tax roll. The Tax Collector mails tax bills for assessments on the Unsecured (business, vessels, airplanes, other unsecured property) tax roll each year on or before July 31. Additionally, in accordance with Revenue and Taxation Code Section 3371 the Tax Collector mails the Annual Secured Delinquent Notice for any current fiscal year secured delinquent tax bill.  Annually the Mendocino County Tax Collector mails approximately 67,000 tax bill statements including the Annual Secured Property Tax bill, Annual Unsecured Property Tax Bill, and the Annual Secured Delinquent Notice with the largest portion of tax bill mailing costs being actual postage fees.  Print and mail services include development, design, and modification of bill templates, postage fees, formatting data from the property system to the tax bill from various file types, utilization of address standardization and house-holding tax bills to decrease postage fees, and print, sort, insert return envelopes or notices, and mail tax bills. Approve agreement with The Data Center, a mailing.com company, for these print and mail services for Mendocino County Tax Bills, Statements, and/or Notices, for an increase of $60,000, and a total amount not to exceed $180,000, effective May 3, 2022 through June 30, 2026 and authorize Board Chair to sign same.
