The Pueblo County Treasures office is responsible for identifying, classifying, and determining the market value of all taxable real and personal property within a jurisdiction, essentially assigning a value to each property for the purpose of calculating property taxes; their primary function is to ensure fair and equitable distribution of the tax burden by accurately assessing property values across Pueblo County. For a more in-depth discussion take a look at the Colorado Department of Local Affairs website.

I recently wrote an article about how taxes are calculated, see How Property Taxes are calculated for a condensed, concise discussion of how property taxes are calculated.

Important Dates

January – tax notices are mailed out in January and you should receive your statement no later than Feb 1. If you haven’t you need to contact the assessors office (contact information is further down in this article).

Feb 29 – this is the date when the first half of the payment is due.

June 15 – the second half of the payment is due.

April 30 – if you wish to pay the taxes in full it is due earlier than the June 15th deadline.

Interest accrues at 1% per month for late payments. If a deadline lands on a weekend, you will have until the next business day to pay.
