Property taxes must be paid before you can register car. What do you do if you are a renter?

Question:
I noticed that some states, I saw the Delaware site, that your property taxes must be paid for the year, or you will not be allowed to renew your tabs on your car? What do renters do, and what does property taxes have to do with vehicle titles/registration? What if you lease a condo, but live in Maryland, do the Maryland taxes have to be paid?
