Owners of properties damaged by the storms may be able to get a temporary reduction in their property taxes. The law allows for property values to be reduced on a sliding scale per quarter of the year in which the damage occurs, with a reduction of up to 75% available for damage that happened by June 30. The reduction would be reflected on the property's next tax bill, which is due in January.
