When property tax assessment lists can be changed
Read the official text at library.municode.com ↗This section says that once the property tax assessment list is made, it can only be changed in a few specific situations. Changes are allowed to add property that was left out, fix duplicate assessments, or correct clerical mistakes. If land is classified as kuleana land, that land is listed as exempt and any back taxes and penalties on it must be removed.
