First, look up your account on this website. If a tax statement for this year does not exist, it means the Assessor did not receive an assessment form from you; you need to contact the Assessor's office. If a tax statement for this year is available, look up your account and print a copy of your statement HERE.

• Don't like the fee?  Neither do I.  Feel free to pay with your checking account information for no extra charge.

IN PERSON:

• We accept cash, check, credit/debit card.  
• The bank fees do apply to in person credit and debit card transactions. 
• You do need to bring your photo id to pay with credit or debit cards.  

The amount of tax you owe each year is based on the value of the vehicles you owned on January 1st of that year. The assessed value of your vehicles is established by the county Assessor using a standard rate book. The assessed value of your vehicles is printed on the upper right-hand portion of your statement. To determine what the Assessor believes to be the market (actual) value of your vehicles, multiply the assessed value by three. Assessed value x 3 = market value. If you believe that the Assessor has overvalued your vehicles, you may contact the Assessor's office.
