Sorry for the boring question, but can anyone tell me if sewer and garbage collection fees are generally included in property taxes in St. John's County, or are they charged separately as additional fees?

I know they showed up on my property tax bill as a seperate fee if I remember correctly. They were charged in addition to my property taxes I believe. Sorry I'm not certain, but you can definately find out on the Property appriasers office at SJCPA - St Johns County Property Appraiser

Garbage/waste is collected with your property taxes each year, there are fees for collection, recycling and disposing. For sewer, if you don't have septic system, then it is part of your water bill.

No I don't think so. I believe it's listed separately on your bill. I don't live in St. John's County, so I don't have a tax bill to view. It's collected with your taxes. They have determined a set fee for each of the 3 areas (collection, recycle and disposal)

Go here to see the fees (Q #6) :

Also, it can be a separate charge. When we moved into our house, we were informed that our subdivision had garbage collected twice a week versus the once a week St. Johns County includes with property taxes so we had to set up an account and pay quarterly.

OK, I see from the FAQ that it's a total of $176 per year for the county contractor in addition to your property taxes. About $15 a month. A bargain, compared to NJ. Thanks for the help.
