Collier County 2007 Assessed Values Available

Recently the Collier County Appraiser’s Office updated the web site to reflect the assessed values for the Naples area.

Naples property owners should be receiving shortly in the mail the Notice of Proposed Property Taxes for 2007.  This notice is commonly called the TRIM (Truth in Millage Notice).

The TRIM notice reflects some important information for property owners.

1) It compares your property’s value from 2006 to 2007, as well as what value will be used to calculate your annual real estate taxes.  Note the value is determined by properties sold prior to January 1, 2007, or in calendar year 2006.

2) The notice shows the amount of taxes due to the following entities:
- County
- Public Schools
- South Florida Water Management District
- Municipal Services Taxing Unit (MSTU)
- Independent Special Districts
- Voter Approved Debt Payments

3) Finally it shows your prior year’s (2006) property taxes, proposed taxes if the proposed budget change is made, and taxes if no budget change is made.

One last thing to remember about the TRIM notice is that it shows only ad-valorem items.  Nonad-valorem are not shown and could be such things as assessments for roads, drainage, garbage, fire, lighting, sewer or certain levies by county, city or any special district.  A common item is the Community Development District (CDD).
