The Coos County Assessor’s Office wants you to understand how Oregon’s property tax system works and how the downturn in the real estate market may affect the taxes you pay.
A 45-minute Power Point presentation and a question-and-answer session will answer why property taxes still can rise while the market value of property falls.
