Outside of a data change, a property owner can appeal their assessment during the appeal period, which is open during the 30 days following notice of reassessment.

Deadline to appeal to the Real Estate Assessment Office is March 30, 2024

Deadline to appeal to the Board of Equalization is April 30, 2024.
