Personal Property Assessment Appeals

Appealing your assessment does not guarantee a reduction. Filing an appeal does not relieve the payment of a tax bill by the respective due date. If the assessment is later reduced as a result of an appeal and the original was paid, the county may issue a tax refund if all other taxes are current.
