Castro/Upper Market Community Benefit District Assessment Fee
The Castro/Upper Market Community Benefit District is funded through an assessment on property within the Community Benefit District’s boundaries. Assessments are based on linear frontage, lot size, building square footage and building use. The formula for determining individual assessment fees can be found in the CBD’s Management Plan. The CBD receives its information on linear frontage, lot size, building size and building use from the San Francisco Office of Assessor-Recorder. This information for each assessed property within the CBD’s boundaries is provided, by APN, here. It is the responsibility of each property owner to ensure that the information provided to the Castro/Upper Market CBD, from the Assessor’s office is correct. To correct information on your property contact the Office of Assessor-Recorder directly. Contact the Office of the City Assessor-Recorder.
The assessment fees are listed below by year. Click on any year to find the assessment fee for your parcel. To find your parcel number go to: https://sfplanninggis.org/pim/ and put in your property’s address. For more information about your assessment fees see the Castro CBD’s Management Plan.
