Section 2611.7.
-
(a) Upon the written request of a taxpayer made no later than September 1, a tax collector who has adopted this section pursuant to paragraph (4) of subdivision (c) shall, subject to subdivisions (b) and (c), issue a consolidated tax statement, for all of the properties entered on the secured roll with respect to which the requesting taxpayer is the assessee. An adopting tax collector shall annually print on the back of each property tax bill a written notice to each taxpayer of a taxpayer's authority under this section to request a consolidated tax statement, and of those fees, requirements, conditions, and limitations specified in subdivisions (b) and (c).
(b) Any request made pursuant to this section for a consolidated tax statement is subject to all of the following conditions:
(1) The request shall specify the assessor's parcel number of each property on the secured roll for which the requesting taxpayer is the assessee.
(2) With respect to any single parcel, only one named assessee may request and receive a consolidated tax statement.
(3) Any request that is timely made pursuant to this section for a consolidated tax statement is valid only for those property taxes levied for the first five fiscal years following the making of the request.
(c) (1) The tax collector may charge a fee for each request for a consolidated tax statement made pursuant to this section. Any fee charged pursuant to this paragraph shall be set at an amount not greater than that amount that will allow the tax collector to recover his or her costs incurred in implementing this section.
(2) A consolidated tax statement issued pursuant to a request made pursuant to this section is not a tax bill and does not supersede or take the place of any tax bill.
(3) No tax collector shall incur any legal liability with respect to any consolidated tax statement provided by the tax collector pursuant to this section.
(4) This section does not apply to a county unless the tax collector of that county has adopted this section pursuant to a written memorandum transmitted to the county board of supervisors and recorded with the county recorder.
