Property owners will have until August 25, 2021 to file this special valuation complaint for tax year 2020. The existing deadline was March 31, 2021. In order to file this special valuation complaint, the claimed reduction in value cannot be a general claim based on market conditions, but must be related to specific circumstances that apply to the specific property. The request for reduction must allege with particularity that the property value decreased between January 1, 2020 and October 1, 2020 specifically as a result of COVID-19 or associated state orders. Failure to comply with these requirements in the special valuation complaint will result in a dismissal of the complaint.

Ohio Permits Owners to Revise Property Tax Valuations Where Impaired by Covid-19
Ohio Governor Mike DeWine signed Ohio Senate Bill 57 on April 27, 2021, which becomes effective July 26, 2021. The new law allows an owner of property impacted by COVID-19 or associated state orders to file a special board of revision valuation complaint with a tax valuation date of October 1, 2020 to allow for the consideration of COVID-19 associated impacts to the property. Under previous law, the tax year 2020 valuation date was January 1, 2020 – before many properties were impacted by COVID-19 and before any associated state orders were implemented.
