Oversight by Title Company and Closer!

Property tax question for here in Michigan (Grand Rapids area specifically). 

From what I've gathered summer taxes cover you from July 1st (current year) - June 30th (upcoming year) and winter taxes cover you from December 1st (current year) - November 31st (upcoming year).

Therefore, if I paid my Summer 2018 tax bill in August 2018 this would cover my summer taxes from July 1st, 2018 - June 30th, 2019, and I would not be paying for the days previous to June 30th, 2018?

Title company and closer forgot to hold cash for taxes and now I'm getting a bill for unpaid  summer taxes (closed on the property June 22nd, 2018). So I'm making sure I'm not getting stuck with the taxes from before I owned the property!
