Section 12-60-2510 - Property tax assessment notice; contents; written notice of objection(A)(1) In the case of property tax assessments made by the county assessor, whenever the assessor increases the fair market value or special use value in making a property tax assessment by one thousand dollars or more, or whenever the first property tax assessment is made on the property by a county assessor, the assessor, by July first in the year in which the property tax assessment is made, or as soon after as is practical, shall send the taxpayer a property tax assessment notice. In years when real property is appraised and assessed under a countywide equalization program, substantially all property tax assessment notices must be mailed by October first of the implementation year. In these reassessment years, if substantially all of the tax assessment notices are not mailed by October first, the prior year's property tax assessment must be the basis for all property tax assessments for the current tax year. A property tax assessment notice under this subsection must be in writing and must include: (a) the fair market value;(b) value as limited by Article 25, Chapter 37, Title 12;(c) the special use value, if applicable;(d) the assessment ratio;(e) the property tax assessment;(f) the number of acres or lots;(g) the location of the property;(h) the tax map number; and(i) the appeal procedure.(2) The notice must be served upon the taxpayer personally or by mailing it to the taxpayer at his last known place of residence which may be determined from the most recent listing in the applicable telephone directory, the Department of Motor Vehicles' motor vehicle registration list, county treasurer's records, or official notice from the property taxpayer.(3) In years when there is a notice of property tax assessment, the property taxpayer, within ninety days after the assessor mails the property tax assessment notice, must give the assessor written notice of objection to one or more of the following: the fair market value, the special use value, the assessment ratio, and the property tax assessment.(4) In years when there is no notice of property tax assessment, the property taxpayer may appeal the fair market value, the special use value, the assessment ratio, and the property tax assessment of a parcel of property at any time. The appeal must be submitted in writing to the assessor. An appeal submitted before the first penalty date applies for the property tax year for which that penalty would apply. An appeal submitted on or after the first penalty date applies for the succeeding property tax year.(B) The department shall prescribe a standard property tax assessment notice designed to contain the information required in subsection (A) in a manner that may be easily understood.2007 Act No. 57, Section 9, eff 6/6/2007; 2006 Act No. 388, Pt IV, Section 2.B, eff upon ratification of amendment to Article X of the Constitution (ratified April 26, 2007); 2003 Act No. 69, Section 3.FF, eff 6/18/2003; 2002 Act No. 271, Section 1, eff 5/28/2002; 2000 Act No. 283, Section 4(B), eff 5/19/2000; 1998 Act No. 298, Section 1; 1996 Act No. 431, Section 28; 1995 Act No. 60, Section 4A.
