​YORK – York County Assessor Kurt Bulgrin and the Nebraska Department of Revenue, Property Assessment Division, are reminding owners of depreciable taxable tangible personal property how the Nebraska Personal Property returns and schedules must be filed on or before May 1 with the county assessor where the personal property is located.
If someone has property in more than one location, they should contact the county assessor to determine the tax district.
A Nebraska personal property return and schedule must be filed for all depreciable tangible personal property which is owned or held on Jan. 1 at 12:01 a.m. of each year, or leased from or to another person.
Deadline dates and penalties: If after May but on or before June 30, 10% of the tax due on the value will be added; if after July 1, 25% of the tax due on the value will be added.
The payment or nonpayment of sales tax does not impact the property tax status of tangible personal property.
Those with questions can contact Bulgrin’s office or go to revenue.nebraska.gov/PAD/personal-property

​YORK COUNTY – With planting season coming back around for another year, the York County Roads Department is reminding farmers they cannot plant in the county right-of-way.
Ashley Rasmussen said the roads department has had, for a few years now, issues with some farmers planting in the county right-of-way.
“And we’ve even had farmers call us, asking us to move stop signs, road signs, so they can plant there,” Rasmussen said. “The road signs are where they are supposed to be and they aren’t going to be moved. If you are planting in the right-of-way, where the roads signs are, you are farming in the wrong place, farming where you shouldn’t be.”
