resident services What to Know About Your 2025 Village Tax BillYour Village tax bill has a new look this year—redesigned for greater clarity, readability, and ease of use. The updated layout features your property information at the top of both the bill and the remittance coupon, a simplified tax summary, and a QR code linking directly to scarsdale.gov for online payment. View a sample of the new layout here. Payments must now be mailed to a new lockbox address: PO Box 5600, Binghamton, NY 13902, using the enclosed remittance envelope. We encourage residents to use our online bill pay, a secure, free way to pay tax bills. If you are utilizing a bank bill pay method, please ensure to update the address and schedule payments early, as bank-issued checks often lack postmarks and may incur penalties if received after the due date. Tax bills will be mailed on June 30, with email notifications sent July 1 to enrolled users. Payment for the total tax or first installment is due by August 1, 2025. For questions regarding your tax bill, please call the Treasurer's Office at (914) 722-1170.

Village spotlight Pawsitively Perfect Day at Scarsdale’s First Paw-loozaDespite a few raindrops and some early summer heat, the first-ever Scarsdale Paw-looza was a tail-wagging success! Held on Sunday, June 22, as part of Destination Scarsdale, this pet-friendly celebration brought more than 1,250 animal lovers to Spencer Place for a day of furry fun. Hosted in partnership with SPCA Westchester, the Scarsdale Business Alliance, and the Village of Scarsdale, the event featured something for everyone, whether you had two legs or four! Highlights included a puppy cuddle station, pup cup and biscuit bar, kids’ crafts, a doggy photo booth, and even a “sniffari” for curious canine noses. The heartwarming highlight? Nine adoptions from the SPCA’s mobile unit—nine lucky dogs, puppies, and kittens found their forever homes. Thank you to everyone who came out to support, cuddle, adopt, and celebrate our four-legged friends.
