The Auditor-Controller’s Office is responsible for applying the 1% general levy and applicable voter approved bond rates to the related parcels, enrolling the fixed charges and/or special assessments onto the tax roll, and apportioning the tax collections to the various jurisdictions within the county. In addition to the property tax levy and apportionment process, the Auditor-Controller makes corrections to the roll as directed by the Assessor or Assessment Appeals Board, processes refunds resulting from these corrections and adjusts allocations as needed for annexations or detachments of boundary lines or jurisdictions.
Our office is open Monday through Friday, 8:30 am to 5:00 pm (except County holidays).
In order for you to be provided with accurate and timely information, it is important that you direct your question to the appropriate County office.
