OFFICE OF THE CLAY COUNTY PROPERTY APPRAISER
Honorable Roger A. Suggs, CFA, AAS, CCF State-Certified General Real Estate Appraiser RZ2771
Dear Taxpayer: The following publication represents the fifth Annual Report prepared by the Clay County Property Appraiser’s Office. The purpose of the Annual Report is to provide summarized data maintained within our computer-aided-mass-appraisal (CAMA) database that may be interesting, if not helpful, to the reader. One of the hallmarks of a fair property tax system is its transparency and public access to information. Even though property tax laws are a product of the Florida Legislature, their transparency and effect on the local population are in large part a responsibility of the County Property Appraiser’s Office. To that end, in addition to maintaining a very informative and user friendly website (ccpao.com), a need was felt to provide annually summarized data that may not be available in other places. Because Clay County is growing and evolving every year and areas of interest change over time, there may be other information that you would like to see or find beneficial to this publication. Your feedback is always welcomed and appreciated, so please feel free to contact our office with any suggestions you may have to enhance the effectiveness of this report. Respectfully, Roger A. Suggs, CFA, AAS, CCF Clay County Property Appraiser State-Certified General Real Estate Appraiser RZ2771

Steven A. Garrard, Director of Administrative Services On October 31, 2016, Steve Garrard, Director of Administrative Services, officially retired after 34 years of faithful service to the Clay County Property Appraiser’s Office (CCPAO). Originally hired by Property Appraiser, Lawrence “Mickey” Murray in November of 1982, Steve started his career in what was once known as the Field Department. During his long career with the CCPAO, Steve worked in almost every area of the office before settling into his final position as the Director of Administrative Services in 2001. As the Director of Administrative Services, Steve’s primary responsibility was to direct the collection of information for the annual assessment roll for certification to the Department of Revenue. He was also responsible for the supervision of one of the largest departments in the office. Throughout his many years of hard work, Steve acquired vast amounts of knowledge and was always happy to share that knowledge or to lend a helping hand to anyone who needed it. Steve’s knowledge and friendly smile will be greatly missed around the halls of the Clay County Property Appraiser’s Office. We know that his schedule is already full with travel, hunting and spending time with his children and grandchildren. Thank you Steve for your many years of faithful service to the Clay County Property Appraiser’s Office. You will be missed!

It is situated in northeast Florida, southwest of the city of Jacksonville and west of historic St. Augustine. The county’s entire eastern border is formed by the St. Johns River. Approximately 202 square miles, or 31.40% of the total land size is comprised of government owned property (excluding public right-of-ways and river/waterway bottoms). According to the latest census data, there are 203,967 people and 78,179 households in the county. The homeownership rate was estimated at 75% and the median household income was estimated at $58,290. It is projected that Clay County’s population will experience a 93% increase between 2000 and 2030, while Florida’s population as a whole is projected to increase by only 50%. The Board of County Commissioners is the 5 member, law-making body of the county, operating under the Home Rule charter since 1991.

Duties of the Property Appraiser
The Clay County Property Appraiser, an elected Constitutional Officer, is responsible for producing an annual assessment roll, which is a record of each property in the county. The intended purpose of the assessment roll is to provide a basis for ad valorem (“according to value”) taxation of property pursuant to the Florida constitution, statutes, administrative rules, and regulatory agencies. The Property Appraiser is responsible for identifying, locating, and fairly valuing all property, both real and personal. Additionally, the Property Appraiser tracks changes of ownership, records up to date descriptions of buildings and property characteristics, administers exemptions, assessment reductions, classifications and other forms of property tax relief, and utilizes a geographic information (GIS) system to provide up to date property ownership maps. A progressive computer assisted mass appraisal (CAMA) system is relied upon to ensure consistency and equity. The Property Appraiser does not determine the tax rates; that is the responsibility of the various taxing authorities. Furthermore, the Property Appraiser does not collect property taxes; property tax payments are made to the Clay County Tax Collector.

The most common real property exemption is the homestead exemption. Florida residents who have legal or equitable title to property, have the intention of making the property their permanent residence as of January 1, and make application, are eligible for homestead exemption.
Under the Florida Constitution, qualified residents may receive a homestead exemption that reduces the taxable value of their property by as much as $50,000. The first $25,000 exemption applies to all property taxes, including school district taxes. The additional exemption of up to $25,000 applies to the assessed value between $50,000 and $75,000, and only to non-school taxes.
The Homestead Portability feature was provided in Constitutional Amendment 1 in 2008. If your home has a homestead exemption, and has accumulated a Save Our Homes cap, you may be eligible to transfer the savings to the next home you purchase in the state of Florida, subject to certain requirements.

Deployed Military Homestead Discount
We salute our military service members! Constitutional Amendment 1 was approved by Florida voters in November 2010, with implementation for the 2011 assessment roll. Pursuant to s. 196.173 Florida Statutes, a member or former member of any branch of the United States military or military reserves, the United States Coast Guard or its reserves, or the Florida National Guard may receive an exemption if he or she: 1) receives a homestead exemption, 2) was deployed during the previous calendar year outside the continental United States, Alaska, and Hawaii in support of a designated operation (each year the Florida Legislature designates operations for this exemption), and 3) submits an application (form DR-501M) by March 1st. A copy of the service member’s deployment order, listing deployment dates, must accompany the application. The percentage of taxable value that is exempt for the current year is determined by the percent of time during the previous year when the service member was deployed on a designated operation.

Tangible Personal Property Exemption
Taxpayers who file returns in a timely manner are exempt on the first $25,000 of the market value of their tangible personal property (TPP). A business with less than $25,000 must file an initial return which serves as its application for the exemption. The following year a waiver letter will be mailed to taxpayers with values less than $25,000. Those who receive waivers will not have to file returns unless they have added property that may cause the value of the TPP to exceed $25,000. A change of ownership or a change of the location of a business are events that also trigger the filing requirement.

An agricultural classification may be applied to different types of agricultural property such as timber, pasture, groves, nurseries, etc. The agricultural classification is available only to the portion of the property that is being used primarily for bona fide agricultural purposes. The term “bona fide agricultural purposes” means good faith commercial agricultural use of the land, pursuant to s. 193.461(3)(b), F.S. It is the responsibility of the property owner to establish and prove an agricultural operation. The agricultural classification is a benefit to property owners that results in a classified use value based upon the probable income from normal agricultural use which is often substantially less than market value, thus making it economically feasible to continue such usage. Applications that have been granted will automatically renew each January; however, the classification is not transferrable. New applications must be filed due to changes of ownership/title, and change of acreage or use.

Impact on 2016 Assessment Roll of Constitutional Changes
(Amendment 1, Approved January 29, 2008)
Value Clay County Property Appraiser
Estimating Value
Florida law charges the Property Appraiser with the task of valuing all property that is not immune from taxation, or otherwise expressly exempt from valuation. The assessment roll of Clay County is comprised of approximately 96,155 real property parcels and tangible personal property accounts which must be reviewed annually. To ensure that all properties are assessed accurately, equitably, and efficiently, mass appraisal techniques are utilized as the primary method of valuation. The process of mass appraisal is supported by s. 193.023(3), F.S., which states, “In revaluating property in accordance with constitutional and statutory requirements, the Property Appraiser may adjust the assessed value placed on any parcel or group of parcels based on mass data collected, on ratio studies prepared by an agency authorized by law, or pursuant to regulations of the Department of Revenue.” Section 194.301(1), F.S., states, “… the value of property must be determined by an appraisal methodology that complies with the criteria of s. 193.011, F.S., and professionally accepted appraisal practices.” As such, the Clay County Property Appraiser’s Office considers three recognized and generally accepted approaches in the development of value estimates: the cost approach, sales comparison approach, and the income capitalization approach. The applicability of each approach depends on the character of the property and the availability of market data.
18
Market (Just) Value
Market (just) value is commonly defined as the most probable price for a property in a competitive, open market involving a willing buyer and a seller, and is the major focus of ad valorem appraisal assignments. Pursuant to Article VII of the state Constitution and s. 195.042, F.S., all property shall be assessed according to its market (just) value, on January 1 of each year. Additionally, s. 193.011, F.S., prescribes the factors that the Property Appraiser must consider in the estimation of market value. The market value assessment is unencumbered and may increase or decrease as the market dictates. Clay County’s real property market value increased over 74% from 2004 to 2007. Due to the national recession, the market value decreased over 24% from 2007 to 2012. Since 2012 the market value has increased more than 21%.

History of Market Value
Assessed Value
The assessed value is the value of property after any assessment reductions, agricultural classifications, limitations, or caps have been applied. Furthermore, the assessed value is an administrative assessment created by the Legislature and is not directly related to market value. Homestead and non-homestead properties may have an assessed value that is lower than market value due to the Save Our Homes cap, or the 10 percent Assessment Growth Limitation cap. The following chart illustrates the relationship between the market value and assessed value for a hypothetical residential property for a number of years:
20
SOHD / AGL
Save Our Homes Differential (SOHD)
The Florida Constitution was amended in 1992 to provide a limitation in annual increases to assessed value on residential property receiving a homestead exemption. The assessment limitation is known as “Save Our Homes” and limits the annual increase in assessed value to 3% (excluding any additions or improvements), or the amount of the Consumer Price Index (CPI) increase as determined by the Department of Revenue, whichever is less. The table below displays Clay County’s Save Our Homes cap and taxes saved since 2010, based on the total unincorporated area millage rate.

Assessment Growth Limitation Differential (AGL)
21
There is a 10% cap on the assessed value for non-homesteaded residential and non-residential properties beginning with the 2009 assessment roll. The Legislature adopted several statutes to implement the 10% differential on non-homestead properties, explaining the conditions requiring the reassessment and resetting of the cap to market value, and the required notification process when a change of ownership or control of more than 50% occurs. The Assessment Growth Limitation cap does not apply to school taxes.
The table below displays the 2016 differentials or “capped” values and associated taxes saved within the various taxing authorities.

1 Section 193.1554, F.S., applies to non-homestead residential property with no more than nine (9) dwelling units and to vacant property zoned for residential uses. The 10% cap is removed when a change of ownership or control of more than 50% occurs.
2 Section 193.1555, F.S., applies to all residential properties with ten (10) units or more and all non-residential properties. It provides for the reassessment of the property and resetting of the 10% when a qualifying improvement increases the market value of the property by at least 25%. The ownership and control provisions are the same.

The taxable value equals the assessed value minus exemptions. Like the assessed value, it is not directly related to market value. The taxable value is half of the formula used to determine ad valorem property taxes; the other half is the millage rates levied by taxing authorities (taxable value x millage rate = tax levied).

Property can be identified by two broad categories: real property and tangible personal property. Real property is the rights, interests, and benefits connected with real estate. Real estate is the physical parcel of land, improvements to the land, improvements attached to the land, and appurtenances. Tangible personal property will be discussed later in this section. The Appraisal Services Department is responsible for the inspections and annual valuation estimates of real property, which is comprised of residential, commercial, industrial, institutional and agricultural parcels. Additionally, the department is required to physically inspect each parcel once every five years, pursuant to s. 193.023, F.S. This helps to ensure that the assessment roll data is accurate and up to date.

Mobile Homes
A mobile home may be classified as either real property or as tangible personal property. If the mobile home owner owns the land where the mobile home is located, it is considered real property and the resident owner may be eligible for a homestead exemption. If the land is rented then the mobile home is considered a motor vehicle and the attachments to the mobile home (carports, screen porch, etc.) are classified as tangible personal property. Annual mobile home decals should be purchased by December 31st from the Department of Motor Vehicles (Clay County Tax Collector).

Tangible Personal Property and Centrally Assessed
Personal property is classified as either tangible or intangible. Tangible personal property can be touched, it has intrinsic value. Taxable tangible personal property includes equipment in commercial use that is not expressly exempt. Intangible personal property has value based on what the property represents. Stocks, bonds, mutual funds, and accounts receivable are all intangible personal property. Intangible personal property is not reported to the county property appraiser. Centrally assessed is all railroad operating property subject to assessment according to s. 193.085(4)(a), F.S., and rolling stock of private car and freight line and equipment companies subject to assessment under s. 193.085(4)(b), F.S. Ad valorem taxes from the assessment of tangible personal property are levied by local taxing authorities. Tangible personal property and central assessments rely on a self-reporting system. Taxpayers who are required to file must do so by April 1 of each year, listing the reportable property that was in place on January 1, which is the assessment date.

On an annual basis, each taxing authority establishes a millage rate by dividing the proposed budget by the taxable value less the value of new construction. The millage rate is then multiplied by the taxable value of each property located within the taxing district. The revenues generated are used to support the local services provided by each of the taxing authorities. Each year the newly proposed millage rates are published on the Truth in Millage (TRIM) notice sent to property owners during the month of August. It is important to review the TRIM notice since it provides details about the proposed millage rates, the new appraised values, and exemption information. The TRIM notice provides the date, time and place of the taxing authority’s budget hearing as well as contact information.

Not all of the taxing authorities take advantage of the county services offered. Some of the cities and towns have their own fire department, law enforcement and special services. Since this information was not consistent across the board, it was necessary to develop the spreadsheet below. Hopefully, this will help to explain the necessity of the different millage rates and the application of each.
