Disaster Exemption

If your property was damaged during the April or May storms, there is a temporary disaster exemption available that could reduce your 2024 taxes.

The Texas Tax Code allows a qualified property that is at least 15% damaged in a governor-declared disaster area to receive a temporary exemption of a portion of the appraised value of the property. Qualified property includes real property such as homes and buildings, certain manufactured homes and tangible personal property used for the production of income for a business.

The property owner must apply for the temporary exemption no later than October 21, 2024.

Please mail the temporary disaster exemption form – along with copies of any supporting documents such as photos, inspection reports, estimates or invoices – to the address in the top left of the form.
