Have questions about property taxes? County officials will be available next week to answer them.
Clark County Treasurer Alishia Topper and Assessor Peter Van Nortwick will be available to discuss property taxes from 2 to 4 p.m. Wednesday at the Evergreen Room/Tan Complex, at the Evergreen Public Schools Administrative Service Center, 13501 N.E. 28th St.
“I’m looking forward to helping people plan ahead and answer any questions they might have about the changing tax climate,” Topper said in a written statement.
The state is in the middle of a two-year process that has significantly changed how property taxes are collected and distributed to local school districts. Last year, most property owners saw significant increases in their property tax bills to meet the state’s education funding requirements under the McCleary lawsuit. This year, property tax rates will again change that should result in lower bills for most property taxpayers.
“The property tax change impacts are school district specific, and we want to ensure transparency to taxpayers,” Van Nortwick said in a written statement.
