Summary
Lavaca County's tax assessor-collector reported certified appraised county value of $4,656,428,640 and a county taxable value of $3,736,519,766; the court acknowledged the presentation without objection.
Deborah Sepczyk, the county tax assessor-collector, told the commissioners court that the appraisal district certified 2026 values on July 22 and that the county's total appraised value is $4,656,428,640 and the county taxable value is $3,736,519,766.
