Been in that boat myself just recently, same situation just a different tax collector. It concerned vehicle taxes a town I haven't lived in for 10 years suddenly decided I owed them when I went to renew my car registration. The amount wasn't really that much but I fought it on principal.
Long story short, it turns out that you really can't fight city hall. After driving around with an expired registration for 2 months, going back and forth with the powers that be, I ended up paying the freakin' tax a couple days before the end of the year so I could at least claim it as taxes paid on this years income tax returns.
