Exemption and Agricultural Renewal Cards Mailed
Automatic renewal cards for exemptions and agricultural classification have been mailed recently. If you had an exemption or agricultural classification last year and no change has been made in your residency or mailing address, then you should receive an automatic renewal card.
If you receive a renewal card and you are still eligible for the exemption and/or classification, you don’t need to do anything. Just keep the card for your personal records.
If you receive a renewal card for any exemption or agricultural classification for which you are no longer eligible, it is your responsibility to notify us. You may notify us by calling 386-758-1083.
If you had an exemption or agricultural classification on your property last year and do not receive a renewal card from us by January 15th, you should contact us
