Assessed Value Appeals
Taxpayers who disagree with assessors' valuation of their property can contact the Assessor's office to discuss the assessment. The deadline to file an appeal is November 30. This is for taxpayers who are challenging the assessed value of their property as of January 1. Different appeal periods apply to taxpayers who are appealing supplemental assessments that were due to property being sold, had new construction completed, or being rebuilt after some calamity. County assessors are required to value properties after those events and tax bills can vary without regard to any previous assessed value.
To appeal the assessed value file form BOE 305-AH, Assessment Appeal Application, with the Clerk of the Board of Supervisors. The Assessor will not accept applications or assist in assessment appeals.
