How Allegheny County property taxes are calculated

Allegheny County homeowners can better understand their property tax bills by knowing how assessed values, millage rates and payment deadlines determine what they owe. Property tax bills rely on several figures. The calculation begins with a property's assessed value, which is used with a millage rate to determine the tax owed. Homeowners may see more than one millage rate because Allegheny County, municipalities and school districts can each establish their own rates. Those separate taxes contribute to a property's overall tax burden. Allegheny County property tax payment deadlines Payment timing can affect how much a homeowner owes. For Allegheny County real estate taxes, taxpayers received a 2% discount for paying by March 31. The face amount was due April 30. After that deadline, the county applies a one-time 5% penalty, then 1% interest for each month the bill remains unpaid. Those dates apply to county real estate taxes and should not automatically be used for every property tax bill. Municipalities and school districts can have different collection schedules. How reassessment could affect property taxes Property reassessment adds another factor for Allegheny County homeowners to watch. The county has been using 2012 base-year property values, but a court has ordered a

USW calls on U.S. Steel to get a deal done

United Steelworkers and United States Steel Corp. negotiators are heading back to the bargaining table. And steelworkers say it’s time for the Pittsburgh-based steel and iron ore producer to show movement. Labor contract negotiations between the two sides resumes Friday in Pittsburgh, according to a United Steelworkers (USW) update to its union members who work at U.S. Steel facilities. “As you know, we reached a TA (tentative agreement) with Cliffs last Friday,” the USW said. “USS knows how this process works. They agreed to meet with us on Friday. The company knows they need to move, so this meeting should be productive.” Bernie Hall, a steelworker helping lead negotiations with U.S. Steel, said “it’s highly unlikely” the union will continue negotiations into 2027, according to a Bloomberg Law story. That’s where the new round of negotiations with U.S. Steel become even more interesting. Historically, when one of the two steel and iron ore companies comes to an agreement with the USW, it establishes a pattern for a settlement with the other company. Last week’s tentative agreements with Cliffs, has now set a pattern. The USW said it expects U.S. Steel to respond. “Cliffs set a standard for the industry,” the
