Mayor Tommy Eschete and the City Council have received many inquiries relative to the “Notice for Assessment for Tax Year 2020” sent to resident property owners concerning the reassessment of their property and the estimated new taxes for the year 2020. Many of our residents are concerned about the significant increases being estimated in the notice. These new taxes will be due by December 31, 2020.
Although your City property taxes may have increased along with the Parish property taxes, the City millage rates have not increased and any increase can be attributed to the reassessment of your property value by the Lafourche Parish Assessor’s Office.
Please be advised that the City does not conduct the reassessment nor do we set the new values assigned for your property. If you are interested in accessing information as to how your new property values were assigned, as per the notice, you can contact the Lafourche Parish Assessor’s Office at (985)447-7242.
