Reassessment

2019 is a reassessment year, therefore all property owners will receive a notice of valuation (NOV). Notices of Valuation will be mailed May 1. The month of May is every taxpayer's opportunity to protest their parcel's valuation and/or classification. The County Assessor has answered a few of your questions in a Letter to the Editor about the valuation process.
