East Feliciana Parish Assessor

As Assessor of East Feliciana Parish, I would like to welcome you to our website. After serving as Chief Deputy Assessor for nearly a decade and now having the privilege of serving as Assessor of East Feliciana, one my main goals has always been to maintain a high level of service and transparency. The intention of this website is to provide you with current information regarding your assessments and help you understand the functions and responsibilities of the Assessor's office.

Our main job is to locate and assess any and all taxable property within the parish creating what is called our tax roll. We use the most up-to-date software and GIS maps to ensure fair and impartial assessments for all East Feliciana Parish taxpayers.

This office must comply with the Louisiana Constitution, laws enacted by the Louisiana Legislature, and rules and regulations of the Louisiana Tax Commission, the Assessor's governmental oversight agency. The Louisiana Tax Commission regularly conducts ratio studies to check for fairness and equality in property taxation within our tax roll.

I hope this website will help answer questions about your property assessments. We welcome any feedback regarding this site, and if we can help you in any other way, please feel free to give us a call or come by our office.


Sincerely,
Jeffrey D Gardner
East Feliciana Parish Assessor
