Property Taxation
<br />
<br /> City property taxes are assessed and collected by Alameda
<br /> County (the "County") at the same time and on the same rolls as
<br /> the County, all special district and school district taxes.
<br /> Assessed valuations are based upon 100% of market value.
<br />
<br /> For assessment and collection purposes, property is
<br />classified either as "secured" or "unsecured," and is listed
<br />accordingly on separate parts of the assessment roll. The
<br />"secured roll" is that part of the assessment roll containing
<br />State assessed property and property the taxes on which are a
<br />lien on real property sufficient, in the opinion of the County
<br />Assessor, to secure payment of the taxes. Other property is
<br />assessed on the "unsecured roll."
<br />
<br /> Set forth below is a summary of assessed valuations in the
<br />City for fiscal years 1979-80 through 1987-88.
