Real Estate/Personal Property Abatements
Abatement Procedure
If you believe the value of your Real Estate or Personal Property is incorrect (not if you feel your tax bill is too high), there is a process by which you may apply for an abatement. An abatement application may be filed by the person to whom the property is assessed, or the person who became the owner of the property after January 1. By state law, applications for abatements can only be received during the month of January for the current fiscal year, no abatements can be granted unless the application is filed by the deadline.
