The Sarpy County property valuation protesting period is open June 1 through June 30.

The county assessor has sent property owners who owned property as of May 20, 2026, a Notice of Valuation Change if their assessed value increased or decreased from tax year 2025 to 2026.

If you are not satisfied with your property's assessed valuation and choose to file a protest, you must complete Protest Form 422 and file it with the Sarpy County Clerk’s Office.

The forms are due June 30 in person by 4:45 p.m. or if filing online by 11:59 p.m. Forms submitted by mail must be postmarked no later than June 30. (Keep in mind that under updated guidance, the U.S. Postal Service cannot guarantee that the date a piece of mail is dropped in a box or given to a carrier will be the date reflected on the postmark.)

The Sarpy County Board of Equalization bases its final valuation decision on data from the County Assessor's office, data presented by each protester and the recommendation of an independent appraisal company.

For more details about the protest process and to access Form 422, please visit the Board of Equalization's webpage: https://www.sarpy.gov/770/Form-422---Property-Valuation-Protest

This weekend, we pause to mourn and honor our fallen service men and women. We share our deep gratitude for those who paid the ultimate sacrifice to make our freedoms possible.

A Memorial Day Message from Sarpy County Board Chair Don Kelly:

Memorial Day was first observed in 1868 as a way to remember those who died in the Civil War. As part of that first national commemoration, thousands of participants helped decorate the graves of soldiers buried at Arlington National Cemetery. That patriotic act sparked similar acts of kindness across the country.

Now, more than 150 years later, Memorial Day is a day to reflect on the sacrifices of America’s military heroes and those who gave their lives for our nation. May we carry their spirit of selflessness and service throughout our daily lives and our communities.

Sarpy County offices will be closed on Monday, May 25, to recognize Memorial Day. All public safety services will continue to operate.
