From Bates County Assessor Carl Bettels

 

Good morning, Bates County! 2025 assessments have been mailed. At this time if you haven't received yours, please give us a call at 660-679-3157.
  Please keep in mind that if your address changed, you moved out of the county, you had a name change or bought/sold something we DO NOT automatically receive or know to update this information.
Assessments are due to our office by 3/1/2025. After this date you may incur a late assessment charge. These charges are based on total assessed values and range from $15-105.
  We would also like to take this time to apologize for the lack of return envelope included with assessment sheets. There was an error made at the printing/mailing facility, and they were not included.
  Last, if your assessment list shows 'Farm Equipment' you must include an updated list of said equipment. Without this information your assessment list is incomplete and cannot be processed.
  If you have any questions, please give us a call 660-679-3157. 

Thank you
