The La Plata County Assessor reminds all owners of taxable personal property, including furnishings and equipment used to produce income, that the deadline for filing a declaration schedule is April 15. Anyone who owns personal property with a total actual value greater than $7,700 per county is required to report the personal property to the county assessor.
Failure to declare personal property each year by the deadline will result in the assessor valuing the property using the “best information available” and attaching a penalty to your tax bill. If you did not receive a declaration schedule, you may request one from the county assessor or submit a complete itemized listing of your property.
