Welcome to the Website for the
PVA Office of Clark County!
The Clark County PVA Office is dedicated to promoting a realistic goal to help the public
understand the workings of the PVA office and the steps that are followed to treat everyone
in a fair and equitable manner. We shall maintain the website to address questions about
Kentucky's Property Tax System. New policies and procedures and current statutes will be posted
to keep taxpayers informed. Current certified Tax Roll (assessments), ownership information
and characteristics, photographs and sketches when available. Visit the Tax Roll page for
complete information.
Kentucky property tax law establishes the assessment date as of January 1st. All property
is assessed as of that date. Ownership of property for tax purposes is also set by the January
1st requirement. If a property is purchased after that date, state statute requires the
tax bill be issued in the name of the former owner until the next calendar. We attempt to mail
the tax bill to the new owner using the information provided to us by deeds, or by the
Real Estate Transaction Card, which our office provides to local real estate offices
and may now be obtained online. However, should a property owner not receive a copy of the
tax bill, the owner may contact the Clark County Sheriff at 859-744-4390 to obtain a copy.
Please contact me with any questions, comments or suggestions concerning the PVA office at the email listed above.
