NEW ORLEANS - Orleans Parish property owners wishing to contest the assessment on their property may do so through Wednesday, Aug.15 with the Orleans Parish Assessor's Office. Property owners may visit any of the office's three locations: the fourth floor of City Hall at 1300 Perdido St., the first floor of the Algiers Courthouse at 225 Morgan St., or the second floor of the Lakeview Christian Center at 5885 Fleur De Lis Drive.

"As a state representative, I worked with the Assessor to pass legislation that expanded the open rolls period from two weeks to one month, eliminating the long lines and making the Assessor's office more user-friendly and accessible," said District "D" Councilmember Jared Brossett. "This change has given the Assessor's office and New Orleans residents additional time to evaluate property assessments."

No appointments are necessary, and individuals will be assisted on a first come, first serve basis at all the locations. To check if your property assessments have changed, visit the Assessor's Office website.
