When will the special valuation under the Conservation Stewardship Law take effect?
The soonest that your taxes can be affected is for the 2008 valuation. This valuation will be reflected on the tax bill that you receive in 2009. 2007 land values have already been determined and the tax bill you receive in 2008 will be based on that 2007 value. Enrollment in the Conservation Stewardship Program will remain open as long as the Conservation Stewardship Law remains in effect.
