What are the direct levies on my tax bill?
Direct levies are special assessments which are included in the total amount of your tax bill but which are not ad valorem taxes based on the Assessor’s valuation. Direct levies are put on the tax bill on behalf of the special districts and not by the Assessor, the Auditor-Controller or the Tax Collector. To dispute a special assessment levied against your property, you will need to contact the levying district directly. Phone numbers for the districts appear on the tax bill.
