The assessor said that it is possible that some local visits could be canceled due to the site being unavailable because of local Covid-19 restrictions. Property owners should check with the local site or the assessor’s office to make sure the local site is open.

Holcomb said that Oklahoma law requires that all personal property, except livestock and household furnishings, be listed and assessed each year during the January 1 through March 15 assessment period. Among the property that must be listed and assessed are tractors, farm machinery, farm equipment, business inventories, business fixtures and business equipment.
