MO HB3200

County assessors may use aerial imagery, satellite imagery, GIS, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), oblique imagery, and other comparable technologies to determine real property values, and such technology can satisfy physical inspection requirements unless the assessor deems on-site inspection necessary.

Assessors may create, maintain, and store assessment records in electronic format, which shall be deemed official records under Missouri law.

Property owners may voluntarily opt in to receive assessment notices, valuation sheets, and other official communications via email or secure electronic delivery, with such electronic notice having the same legal effect as mail delivery.

Motor vehicles with a true value under $50,000 as of January 1, 2025, cannot be assessed for more than the previous year's assessment, provided the vehicle was properly assessed in the prior year.

Paper notices must still be provided upon request, and property owners retain the right to request review or appeal of any assessment.
