How this summary was compiled
The official source page above could not be fetched directly, so an AI agent read excerpts of it returned by a web search limited to the official domain; this summary is less complete for that reason and should be confirmed on the city page first.

The verified date is the day this summary was compiled. Fees, forms and deadlines change: confirm them with Collections Division (the source page sits under Financial Services - Collections on the city site) before filing.
