2026 property taxes arriving in your mailbox soon - pierce.co

Happy New Year!

Happy 2026 and Year of the Horse! 

The first weeks of the year have marked a busy time here at the Assessor-Treasurer’s Office. Staff are continuing their property inspections, checking tax rolls for accuracy, and getting tax statements out in the mail. I'm proud to work alongside these hard-working professionals! 

It continues to be an honor to serve as Pierce County’s Assessor-Treasurer. Starting my second year in this office, I have a deeper appreciation for the depth and breadth of our employees’ work, professionalism, and experience.
