Property Taxes

The property tax is complicated, due to strict laws and segregation of duties, three departments, working in cooperation, complete to process.

Simplified, here is the process:

  1. Assessor’s Office: places an Assessment value on the property. The taxpayer’s right to appeal an assessment can be found at IC 6-1.1-15. email - [email protected]
  2. Auditor’s Office: applies the deductions, exemptions, and calculates the tax amount. No deduction is automatic and various restrictions apply. Information on deductions can be found at 6-1.1
    Email – [email protected]
  3. Treasurer’s Office: bills and collects the taxes. You cannot appeal the dollar amount of your taxes, but you can appeal the assessment with the Assessor’s Office and verify with the Auditor’s Office that the deductions have been applied.
