Question About EBR Property Tax

I just received my property tax bill a few days ago and it says it was due on December 31, 2016. It wasn't sent to me until well after that date. I do not have a mortgage so there is no escrow. I pay the bill myself in full by check each December.
1) Has this been a common thing in EBR to get the bill after the due date?
2) Can the payment still be deducted on 2016 income taxes even though the payment was not made until January 2017?
TIA. SIAP but I searched

I assume it was late due to the flood. I live in Denham and received my property tax notice yesterday. Although mine had a February due date. I assume you'll be fine paying it now without penalty but maybe a call wouldn't hurt.

You deduct the taxes in the year they're paid so you'll have to wait for your 2017 taxes.

The fine print says due Dec 31 or 30 days after it was mailed to you.
