Commissioners Remind Residents of Upcoming Property Tax Deadlines

Sheridan County Commissioners Christi Haswell and Nick Siddle appeared on Sheridan Media’s Public pulse to remind residents that property tax exemptions created by the Wyoming Legislature remain in effect for the 2026 tax year but now require action by the homeowner.

Sheridan County Assessor Paul Fall has reported the statewide homeowner exemption—which reduces a qualifying residence’s fair market value by 25% on up to the first $1 million—was applied automatically in 2025. This year, however, homeowners must notify the Assessor’s Office that the property is their primary residence to continue receiving the exemption.

Applications for all property tax programs opened Oct. 1. The deadline for the 25% homeowner exemption is Feb. 2, while the deadlines for the 50% long-term homeowner exemption and the veteran exemption are both May 26.
