SB1033 Requiring County Treasurer’s Mail Property Tax Statements to All Taxpayers (Leach - 2019)

https://apps.azleg.gov/BillStatus/BillOverview/71086
Currently ten of the fifteen counties mail property tax statements to every property owner.
The other five counties, however, do not mail statements to owners of mortgaged property.
Instead, they only communicate how much in property taxes is due to the mortgage
company. Consequently, the property owner is never notified of their property tax liability.

The property tax statement serves as an important educational tool in that it reflects the
final decisions made by the various taxing jurisdictions during the budgeting process. It
should be a minimum expectation that all property taxpayers receive a property tax
statement.
