Who Handles Your Property Tax in Delta County

Delta County has a separate appraisal district and tax office — you deal with both for different parts of your property tax bill.

Delta County Money & Taxes

The Delta County Appraisal District sets the value on your property. It is located at 1280 W. Dallas Ave. in Cooper. The appraisal district does not collect taxes — it only values property. You can visit their website at delta-cad.org or call 903-395-4118 with questions about your appraised value or to apply for exemptions.

The Tax Assessor-Collector is a separate office. It bills and collects what you owe. That office is at 200 W. Dallas Ave. in Cooper. If you need to pay a tax bill or set up a payment plan, that is the right place to call. Check the Texas Comptroller's county directory to confirm current contact info, since names and numbers change over time.
