Assessment Cards Mailed Early This Year
On Monday, the Santa Clara County Assessors Office mailed 466,614 assessment notification cards. The card provides the property owner the opportunity to review the taxable value before it is formally enrolled on July 1. Should the taxpayer disagree with the assessed value, there is sufficient time to contact the Assessor for further review before the July 1 deadline.
“By encouraging property owners to contact us before the close of the assessment roll, we hope to substantially reduce the need for property owners to file a formal appeal with the Assessment Appeals Board. Notifying property owners of their assessed value six months before their tax bill arrives in the fall is a significant benefit to taxpayers,” said County Assessor Larry Stone.
