PROPERTY VALUATION ADJUSTMENTS

Auburn property owners: The City of Auburn wants you to know that the Assessing Department is making valuation adjustments that will affect your property value. The difficult decision to increase values is based on several years of high sale prices and the city’s efforts to remain in compliance with state mandates. These changes will go into effect for the 2022 (as of April 1, 2022) tax year.

Our assessing team stands ready to help explain these changes and answer your questions. There will be several opportunities to learn more and to ask questions:
