Non-ad valorem assessments are based on factors
other than the property value such as square footage or number of units. Levying authorities are responsible for setting
the non-ad valorem assessments.
The real estate tax bill is a combined notice
of ad valorem taxes and non-ad valorem assessments. (Tangible taxes are not subject to non-ad
valorem assessments.) Examples of non-ad valorem assessments are stormwater utility, fire and rescue, and solid waste collections.
The assessment periods vary and may not be based
on the calendar year. Some non-ad valorem assessments are paid in advance.
