The Personal Property Section of the Assessor's
Office establishes values for business personal property (the
assets owned by businesses) for ad valorem property tax purposes.
By April 15 of every year, businesses in Boulder with a total
actual value of their personal property assets greater than $4,000 are required to send the
Boulder County Personal
Property Section a declaration listing all the assets they owned
as of January 1, along with information regarding the original
date and cost of acquisition for those assets. Even if assets were
disposed of after January 1, they must be declared because current
Colorado law does not provide for prorated assessments. The
Assessors Personal Property staff takes the information provided
by the taxpayer and calculates a value for each business; a Notice
of Valuation is mailed by June 15.
If you have also filed a paper
declaration, please note that on your online form.
The
Assessor is located at 1325 Pearl St. Courthouse, Boulder on the
Pearl Street Mall. The mailing address is: P.O. Box 1759, Boulder,
Colorado 80306.
New business owners may be unaware of the basic rules and
procedures regarding the personal property assessment process, so
please review the information in the first paragraph at the top of
this page, and feel free to call the Personal Property Division at
303-441-3316 with any questions. For Leasing Companies, call
303-444-3548.
