Ada County Treasurer Beth Maughan told commissioners on Nov. 21 that 2025 property tax bills have been mailed and that the median owner-occupied residential tax for the county is $1,998 (gross). She explained that mortgage holders often receive a copy bill for informational purposes and reminded taxpayers not to pay duplicate bills that escrows will cover.
Maughan also said the median homeowner tax relief (net) was $243 and emphasized variation by city. In related business the board approved a list of tax cancellations or adjustments for parcels that applied for homeowners’ (homestead) exemptions after the tax roll closed; staff said these are processed as cancellations by statute and will be made on the second-half tax payment.
