Agency Authorization Form

Important Information

In California, the Assessor is prohibited from disclosing confidential information related to the property or business affairs of another. California requires any person signing Business Property Statements as an agent on behalf of a business owner to have a letter of authorization on file with the Assessor’s Office.

A property owner (assessee) may authorize a designated representative to act as their agent for all related assessment matters, inspection of assessment files, requesting copies of information pertaining to their assessment, changing mailing addresses, or signing of Business Property Statements.

For your protection, our office requires a fully completed Agency Authorization form signed by the owner (assessee) on file before release of any confidential information or acceptance of a Business Property Statement filing as being valid.

Agency Authorizations will remain in effect until the Assessor’s Office receives written notice of cancellation and will automatically expire four (4) years from the date of execution. Once expired, our office requires a new Agency Authorization form to be completed.

It is important to remember that while you have the right to delegate authority to a designated representative, you will assume full responsibility for all actions taken by your agent on your behalf.


I hereby appoint the agency / agent listed below to represent me in assessment matters with the Placer County Assessor’s Office. The authority of the agent is as follows:

This authorization will remain in effect until the Assessor’s Office receives written notice of cancellation and will automatically expire four (4) years from the date of execution.
