Salt Lake County Parcel Viewer
The Salt Lake County parcel viewer is worth knowing well if you own or manage property in Taylorsville. The tool at apps.saltlakecounty.gov lets you pull up the full property record for any address in the county. For Taylorsville properties, it shows the parcel number, lot size, building square footage, year built, construction type, and number of units. All of these factors affect the assessed value.
The Salt Lake County parcel viewer gives property owners in Taylorsville a detailed look at assessment records, building characteristics, and value history for any parcel in the county.
If any of the building data in the parcel record is wrong, that can mean an inaccurate assessment. For example, if the record shows more square footage than your home actually has, you may be paying more tax than you should. The assessor can correct factual errors in the property record. Request a review in writing through the assessor's office and provide evidence such as a floor plan or independent appraisal.
Taylorsville Property Tax Exemptions
Utah law gives primary homeowners a 45% exemption on their assessed value. Taylorsville homeowners who live in their property pay tax on just 55% of its fair market value. This is set by Utah Code Title 59, Chapter 2. The exemption is applied automatically when the county classifies the property as a primary residence. If you recently moved into a home in Taylorsville and the exemption is not reflected, contact the Salt Lake County Assessor at 385-468-8000 to correct the record.
The 45% exemption does not apply to rental properties or commercial parcels in Taylorsville, even if they are owned by a Taylorsville resident. Those properties pay tax on the full assessed value. If you own a multi-unit building and live in one of the units, you may be eligible for a prorated exemption on the owner-occupied portion. Contact the assessor for guidance specific to your property.
The Circuit Breaker program offers a partial property tax refund for low-income elderly and disabled homeowners. This is a state program administered by the Utah State Tax Commission. Apply at tax.utah.gov/contact/property-tax by the annual deadline. The Utah property tax rate comparison at propertytax101.org shows that Salt Lake County's 0.67% rate is among the higher effective rates in the state, making exemptions especially valuable for Taylorsville homeowners.
Paying Taylorsville Property Taxes
The Salt Lake County Treasurer at saltlakecounty.gov/treasurer collects all property taxes for Taylorsville. Tax notices go out in the fall. The full amount is due by November 30. Payments can be made online, by mail, or in person. Online payment accepts e-check and credit card. The treasurer's portal shows your current balance, payment history, and any outstanding delinquent amounts for your parcel.
The Salt Lake County Treasurer's portal allows Taylorsville property owners to view current tax bills, confirm payment, and check for any delinquent amounts on their parcel.
If your Taylorsville property has an escrow account tied to a mortgage, your lender pays taxes from the escrow funds. Log into the treasurer's site once a year to confirm payment was made. Tax liens stay with the property even if escrow errors occur. Catching a missed payment early avoids the accumulation of interest and penalties. The treasurer's office has records going back several years, so you can verify your full payment history online.
Taylorsville Development Services and Permits
Taylorsville's Development Services division at taylorsvilleut.gov/development manages zoning, land use, and building permits within city limits. These permits are shared with the Salt Lake County Assessor, who reviews them to identify improvements that should update the assessment roll. Any remodel, addition, or new structure that materially changes the property is reviewed after permit closure.
Taylorsville is a largely built-out city with established residential neighborhoods. Most property changes in Taylorsville involve renovations, garage conversions, basement finishes, and similar improvements rather than ground-up new construction. These types of projects can raise the assessed value when the assessor reviews the permits. Property owners should keep this in mind when budgeting for large improvement projects.
If you are buying a Taylorsville property and want to verify that all improvements were properly permitted, search the permit history through the city's development portal and compare the result to the building characteristics shown in the Salt Lake County parcel viewer. Any discrepancy between what the assessor records show and what actually exists may indicate unpermitted work that could affect future assessed values.
Note: The Taylorsville city government can answer questions about permits and zoning, but the Salt Lake County Assessor handles all questions about assessed values and property tax amounts.
Appealing Your Taylorsville Property Assessment
Salt Lake County property owners, including those in Taylorsville, can appeal their assessed value to the County Board of Equalization. The deadline is on your assessment notice. File before that date. The board looks at evidence from both you and the assessor. For most residential Taylorsville appeals, the hearing is informal and accessible without legal help.
Strong appeal evidence includes recent sales of comparable Taylorsville homes. Look for properties similar in size, age, and condition that sold for less than your assessed value. If actual market sales show a lower number than your assessment, that is your main argument. A formal appraisal from a licensed appraiser gives your case the strongest foundation. You can also use online listing data or sales from the county recorder's database to build your comps.
If the board does not reduce your value enough, the next step is the Utah State Tax Commission at tax.utah.gov/contact/property-tax. Phone 801-297-2200, address 210 N 1950 W, Salt Lake City, UT 84134. The commission handles second-level appeals after the county board and issues binding decisions that can only be challenged further in district court.
