General Information
It takes three separate Siskiyou
County Offices, ASSESSOR,
AUDITOR-CONTROLLER, and TAX COLLECTOR to produce and account
for your property tax bill and payment.
The
ASSESSOR establishes the assessed value of your
property by appraising the value of the property as required by State Law. The assessed
value of your property is then placed on a list called the Assessment Roll, (the
"Roll") along with all other properties in Siskiyou County. The Roll is then
presented to the Siskiyou County Auditor-Controller for further processing.
The AUDITOR-CONTROLLER
extends the Roll ("Extended Roll"). During this process, the general tax and
special assessments are applied to the Roll. The Extended Roll is then sent to the
Siskiyou County Tax Collector for individual tax bill distribution and payment collection.
The TAX COLLECTOR
receives the Extended Roll, which is utilized to print and mail the property tax bills.
When you send your remittance to pay your property taxes, the Tax Collector then records
that payment against your tax balance due. The AUDITOR - CONTROLLER then distributes your
payment to the appropriate taxing agencies.
