Surtax on Commercial Real Property – The surtax on commercial real property is $0.53 per $100 of assessed valuation. The tax is a replacement for the merchants and manufacturers tax, which was discontinued as a result of a reassessment in 1985. The tax is shared on a proportional basis within each county based on lost revenue from 1985. The assessed valuation on commercial real property is calculated at 32% of the market value.
Property taxes are collected by the St. Charles County Collector's Office. Get more information on the City of O'Fallon's Sewer Lateral Insurance Program.

This notice is intended to apprise all interested parties of such change.
