Business Personal Property
Business Personal Property is property that has been leased or purchased to help make a business money. In a retail shop it may include display cases, clothing racks and cash registers. In a restaurant it may include the stove/oven, refrigerator, tables and chairs or meat slicer

As a convenience to known business owners the Assessor’s office mails out Personal Property Declarations each January, by law whether a business receives a declaration or not, one must be returned to the Assessor’s office by April 15. In addition to declarations our Personal Property Appraiser contacts businesses to arrange for on site audits.

Please call our office for questions on Business Personal Property.
