As a reminder: The notice is not a bill. It does not tell you what your taxes will be for the year. This is an estimated market value of your property as of Jan. 1, 2025.? You can also view your value online at https://ucgov.info/3UclU4U and learn more about the reappraisal here:https://ucgov.info/4kp8Sg3
