Duties of the Assessor
Discover, locate, and assess all taxable property in the county.
The Assessor collects data on all property, including exempt property. This data includes a description of
the improvements, land size, assessed value, legal description, ownership, property address, and owner
address.
The Assessor’s maps provide a general representation of the site shape and size.
The Assessor cannot and does not levy taxes. Taxes are levied by a constituted taxing authority within
each taxing district. After mill levies are established by the taxing entities in the county, it is the duty of the
Assessor to apply the levies to the assessed value of property within each district.
