Taxes

      Anchorage is the only fourth-class city within Jefferson County that does their own property assessments. These assessment notices are sent out mid-January each year. Every property owner will receive an assessment notice. For those who wish to appeal their property assessment, the process for doing so will be included on the assessment notice. This assessment is used to determine the amount of your property tax as well as the Anchorage School tax, as applicable.

 

     Tax bills go out mid-April and are due June 30 of each year. If paid by May 31, a discount will be applied to the face amount of what is due. Those paid after June 30 will have penalties attached.

 

     If you are 65 or older, or if you have been declared totally disabled, you are eligible for the homestead exemption. This exemption will give the homeowner a discount on the assessed value of their property. If you have already applied, you do not need to apply again. If you are eligible, you must apply at both Anchorage City Hall and with the Jefferson County Property Valuation. The form and verification of birth or the documentation verifying disability must be submitted as soon as possible to be eligible for current tax bills.
