Friday, March 1, 2013 is the deadline for area residents to apply for or renew CAUV applications. These annual forms need to be in the Marion County Auditor’s Office before the first Monday in March.
As of February 22, 163 renewals have not yet been received by the Auditor’s Office. Failure to renew can cost farmers thousands of dollars in additional taxes and penalties.
CAUV is a program which allows owners of farmland the opportunity to have their parcels taxed according to their value in agriculture. This was passed by Ohio voters in November, 1973. The Ohio General Assembly subsequently passed Senate Bill 423 in April, 1974, establishing CAUV Program by law.
For questions, call Rovanna at the Marion County Auditor’s Office at 740-223-4183.
