Property Tax Assessment Deferral Program

When a property is rehabilitated or improved by new construction, the assessed value may increase because of the investments made in the property. In order to encourage the fullest development of property, the City offers two Property Tax Assessment Deferral Programs (Citywide and Enterprise Zone) that freeze the property tax assessments on certain eligible properties at pre-construction or pre-rehabilitation values. Taxes assessed on the improvements are phased in over a period of five or seven years.
