2020 Biennial Exemption Reports and COVID-19 Public Health Emergency

March 27, 2020

The Governor’s emergency Safer at Home Order asks residents, business, community organizations, and government to take action to reduce further spread of COVID-19. Part of the order makes it clear that individuals should stay at home and observe social distancing guidelines.

As a rule, the Assessor’s Office takes a firm stance on statutory deadlines. However, we are also aware that it may be difficult for owners of exempt properties to comply with the statutory obligation to file the biennial tax exemption reports by the March 31 deadline under the current circumstances.

With that in mind, we simply ask that owners of exempt property make us aware by US Post or email in a brief way their intention to file the report along with the property address or tax key number as soon as practicable.

• U.S. Mail

It is the intention of the Assessor’s Office to delay sending reminder letters to those exempt organizations that have not had a chance to submit the exemption report until April 30th, 2020 in the event the report has not been received by that date.

If you have already filed your biennial exemption report, thank you.
