Property Tax The Property Tax Division is responsible for overseeing the property tax assessment and tax laws of the state. The funds collected are the primary source of funding for school systems, counties, municipalities, and other local government units. Property tax administration is the responsibility of local government. The authority of the department is limited to assisting local government units in making property tax assessments that are fair and in compliance with the law. The department does not collect or use property taxes, however it does estimate the full and true value (centrally assess) of some public utilities, railroads and air line companies.
