What this form is

This application asks the assessor to consider eligible agricultural land for an agricultural assessment, which may reduce the assessed value subject to taxation. The landowner must file an application annually for each separately assessed parcel and provide a soil group worksheet and soil map unless accurate versions are already on file. It requests parcel and land-use details, acreage, sales information, and the applicant’s certification.

Who needs it

A landowner seeking an agricultural assessment for an eligible parcel must file this application with the local assessor.

How to submit it

File the application with the city, town, or village assessor, as applicable; if the village assesses the property, file with both the town and village assessor. Include a stamped, self-addressed envelope to receive notice of the assessor’s decision.

About notarization

The application is signed and dated without a notary; if required for rented land, Form RP-305-c may be attached as an affidavit attesting to the lease.
