Statements are avail- able online now, as well as information about the coun- ty value trends, levy changes and individual property tax account information, at www. lanecounty.org/AT. The first payment is due on Nov. 15. Lane County Assessment and Taxation collects proper- ty tax on behalf of 85 separate taxing districts, including cit- ies, schools, education service districts, water districts, rural fire districts, urban renewal districts and other taxing dis- tricts such as park and recre- ation, library and ambulance districts. The total property tax certi- fied for all tax levies combined in 2018-19 is $548.5 million. This is approximately 6.3 per- cent more than in 2017. The total amount of taxes billed changes each year as a result of the addition of new or renewed local option and bond levies, the expiration of local option and bond levies, the 3 percent statutory increase in Maximum Assessed Values (MAV), the addition of new properties to the tax roll, the number of exemptions grant- ed and the number of proper- ties being taxed on their lower market values instead of their Measure 50 MAV. Lane County’s Jan. 1, 2018, Real Market Value (RMV) increased to $62 billion from $57.6 billion, an overall in- crease of approximately 7.6 percent from Jan. 1, 2017. The total taxable value for all properties combined in Lane County increased by 4.3 percent over last year, from $32.8 billion in 2017 to $34.2 billion in 2018. Additionally, 5 percent of residential proper- ties in Lane County now have a market value below their Measure 50 MAV which is down from 6 percent in 2017. Most properties will contin- ue to see the 3 percent statuto- ry increase in their MAV. On average, residential property owners will pay tax on 70 per- cent of their RMV in 2018. Oregon’s constitution limits the increase in MAV of each property to 3 percent per year, unless there have been changes made to the property, such as new construction or additions, new partitions or subdivisions, removal from special assess- ment or exemption programs, or change in zoning and use of the property. There are over 179,000 property tax accounts in Lane County consisting of: 54.4 per- cent Residential/Tract; 16.6 percent Exempt; 9.8 percent Commercial; 5.9 percent In- dustrial; 4.2 percent Farm/ Forest; 4.6 percent Multi-Fam- ily; and 4.5 percent Business Personal Property, Utilities and Other. Property values for tax pur- poses are set only once a year at the time of certification. Certification occurred for the 2018-19 tax roll on Oct. 5, 2018. Oregon does not reset property values at the time of sale as in California, nor does it reset property values for tax purposes at the time of a refi- nanced loan. The 2018-19 tax statement reflects a property’s RMV as of Jan. 1, 2018. This is based on the Jan. 1, 2017 RMV com- pared to 2017 sale prices which showed an overall median RMV increase of 9.7 percent for a typical house value. Market value changes for individual properties will vary each year due to many factors including the general real es- tate market, property location and changes made to the prop- erty such as new additions, re- models, or demolition. Voters in the past year have approved changes to the tax levies and bond rates which are then applied to a property’s Assessed Value (AV). However, Oregon’s constitution limits the total tax rate that can be billed to an individual property to no more than $10 per $1,000 of market value for government and $5 per $1,000 of market value for schools. These limits do not apply to bonds.

Taxpayers have the right to appeal to the Board of Property Tax Appeals through the Deeds and Records Di- vision of the County Clerk’s Office. The Board of Property Tax Appeals has the authority to reduce market value when sufficient evidence is provided to demonstrate the RMV of a property was different on Jan. 1, 2018, than what is on the tax statement. If RMV is still high- er than AV, the tax payment will likely remain the same. A reduction to the value does not always result in a refund. The board cannot grant reductions to a tax amount; it can only re- view a property’s value. All appeals must be filed with the Lane County Deeds and Records office by Dec. 31.
