Property notices

Three notices go out each year.

Most notices are available in electronic format.

1st notice - Valuation notice

This notice goes out in March.

The notice states the value of your property and its classification. We use these to calculate your property taxes for the following year.

It also states any special property tax programs that the property may qualify for.

You can appeal or question your property's classification or value after you get this notice.

2nd notice - Proposed levies & taxes notice

It shows a detailed breakdown of the taxes due and includes payment stubs.

More past information

This type of record is most commonly used for filing taxes and general record keeping purposes.
Fees – $1 per request, per year. Example: For information on one property from 2008-2010, the total fee would be $3.

This data gives you payment details and breakdowns for the year you are requesting.

We do not provide copies of the checks to anyone other than the person who issued the payment.
