Assessment Appeals

If there is a difference of opinion over the value of a property, the owner should contact the Assessor’s Office for an informal review. If the disagreement continues, the property owner has the right to file an appeal. Siskiyou County has a three-member Assessment Appeals Board, appointed by the Board of Supervisors, who will consider all evidence presented by the property owner and by the Assessor’s staff at a formal hearing. The Appeals Board makes the final determination as to the value of the property in question.

Assessment Appeal Filing Periods are as follows:

• Supplemental Assessment: No later than 60 days after the date on which the assessee was notified by Supplemental Assessment Notice
• Regular Assessment: July 2 through November 30

Appeals are filed with the Clerk of Assessment Appeals Board, Clerk's Office.
