VALID PROP 8 REDUCTION If the market value of property as of January 1st
(lien date) is determined to be lower than the factored Prop. 13 value (usually the purchase price factored by 2% per year) the assessed value will be lowered to the market value.
The lower adjusted value will be reflected on that year’s annual tax bill, which is mailed by the Tax Collector in September.
IMPORTANT: A Prop 8 reduction is a temporary reduction and does not change your base year value.
VALID PROP 8 REDUCTION
INVALID CLAIM FOR A PROP 8 REDUCTION
Proposition 8 Reductions Huge wave of Prop. 8 reductions impacting
2009-10. Estimated at over $250 billion state-wide. Hardest hit counties saw 7%-12% AV
reduction. Merced 15.9%, Riverside 11.9%, Solano 11.4%,
San Joaquin 10.9%, San Bernardino 9.4%, Yuba 8.6%
All communities not created equal. Expect 2010-11 Prop. 8 reductions to be less
severe. While reviewed annually-reinstatements will
take time.

Property Tax Issues to consider as you Prepare your Agency’s Budget
CPI for 2010-11 has been set at a negative .237%. Properties that have not already been reduced per Prop. 8 will receive a reduction.
With a continued decline in SFR sales prices, year over year, Proposition 8 reductions are still likely in 2010-11 in some jurisdictions.
Commercial and Industrial appeals have started to be filed, reductions will lag 1-2 yrs.
The VLF in Lieu allocation is tied to year over year assessed value change. This will be lower in 2010-11 for most cities.
LOOKING FORWARD TO 2012-13
For many agencies, property tax receipts will be lower in 2010-11 than those received in 2009-10.
While economists are suggesting that the economic recovery has begun, it won’t be fast enough to impact property values and the related taxes for 2010-11.
The next year of measurable property tax growth for most cities will be 2012-13.

Impact on Redevelopment Agencies

Questions to Ask When were my project areas adopted? How much new development occurred
during the development “boom”? What is the mix of commercial,
residential, etc…? What is the current vacancy rate for
commercial, industrial uses? How much vacant land is in the RDA?
Recovery ain’t what it used to be! Recovery will vary significantly by
region. Prop. 8 reductions will continue to have a
negative impact on revenues. Commercial property appeals will
increase and value reductions will occur through 2011-12.
Impact on VLFAA - property tax in-lieu of VLF.
Many economists do not expect property values to fully recover until 2014.
