Tax News:

Beginning January 1, 2005 Lycoming County went to a 100% assessed value system.  This means the market value and the assessed value are now the same number. During the spring and summer of 2004, the entire County went through a re-assessment of property value.  This value, multiplied by the millage rate of each municipality, equals the face amount of the tax.  

Current millage rates(2006) are:

Lycoming County: 4.75 mills

Loyalsock Township: 1.40 mills

Loyalsock School: 13.1  mills 

The County and Township Real Estate taxes are issued on the same bill in Loyalsock.  This is generally a blue bill and issued the first week of March.  The School Real Estate Taxes are issued the first week of July, and this is generally a white bill.

Per Capita taxes, which were on a pink bill, were eliminated beginning January 1, 2005.
