High Mileage

No reduction for high mileage. Beginning with the year 2000 the reduced vehicle assessment based on high mileage will be available ONLY for vehicles considered business use  which do not qualify for the Personal Property Tax Relief Act.  Farm use vehicles do not qualify for the Personal Property Tax Relief Act because they are considered business use. 

Estimate/Affidavit for Reduction

If a taxpayer disagrees with the assessment on the vehicle you may print the vehicle assessment appeal form.    The form must be completed by an Estimator stating the description of work and cost to restore the vehicle to average condition.  Vehicle Assessment Appeal Form
