We're talking about Tennessee property taxes, right? The current year's amount is due and payable starting in October, and are considered late if not paid in full by the last day in February of the following year. If the 2022 taxes were escrowed and not paid on time, that's an epic fail by the servicer, and I'm guessing that's not the case. Hog, maybe I'm missing something, but your post makes no sense to me atm; escrowed property taxes disbursed in April/May/June? What?
My mortgage company doesn't pay our property taxes until the end of April. When it was with Wells Fargo they paid it at the end of April, First TN paid ours on the last house in April or May. On another properties where we didn't escrow we paid those usually March/April That's going back well over 20 years and I've never been given a delinquent notice.
Check with your mortgage company (if you escrow) to see when they pay yours. I might be unusual.
In Maury Co / City of Columbia, TN property tax due dates are not the same but there is overlap. The county taxes can be paid from Oct 1 through the last day in Feb of the following year without any penalty or delinquency. City property taxes are paid between Nov 1 and Dec 15.
From experience, delinquent taxes due end up at the county clerk's office and can be paid with an additional interest amount added. The delinquent taxes can sit there for weeks without any delinquency notice being sent out. In my area the county clerk also handles the late city taxes.
