Property Assessment and Reassessment Moratorium Program
Louisville-Jefferson County Metro Government / Jefferson County PVA / Metro Government Inspections, Permits and Licensing Department · County program
Five-year property tax assessment moratorium on qualifying improvements.
Louisville-Jefferson County Metro Government offers a property tax moratorium for qualifying repairs, rehabilitations, restorations, or stabilization work on eligible buildings in Jefferson County. It is not a cash grant, but it can freeze part of the taxable assessment for five years.
Program details
How it works
The moratorium program encourages owners to repair, rehabilitate, restore, or stabilize qualifying residential and commercial structures by deferring the added value of the work from taxable assessment.
Jefferson County says it has participated in a moratorium program since 1983, and that the program was continued by Louisville-Jefferson County Metro Government by ordinance.
