2026 Tax Bills & Fire Fee Changes | Wilmington News

Brunswick County property owners, your 2026 tax bills are here—with new fire fees and a simpler billing system for Oak Island residents. Check your balance now, but paper bills are still on the way. Pay by January 5, 2027, to avoid interest. Fire fees have been raised to help fund departments, and Oak Islanders will now receive one consolidated bill instead of two. Payment options remain the same: online, by phone, mail, or in person. Stay on top of it—late fees add up fast. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
