Commercial Property Assessment

Services are funded by an assessment on commercial property owners within the District’s boundaries. This is how the assessment is calculated:

  • The assessment is only on commercial property.
  • Values are based on the current-year, certified value of real property.
  • Utility Tax Service, LLC sends statements to commercial property owners (based on Harris County Appraisal District rolls) and collects the assessment.
  • Contact Utility Tax Service, LLC Monday through Thursday from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. at 713-688-3855 or via their website.
  • The assessment is $0.10 for every $100 valuation.
