Dear Citizens of San Francisco,
It is my honor to serve you and value your property in a fair and equitable manner according to California Revenue and Taxation Laws, record your documents with integrity, and provide you with superior and courteous service. As your Assessor-Recorder, I am committed to improving our services and collecting every tax dollar owed to the City. The taxes we generate fund crucial city services including police, fire, public schools, health, neighborhood services, libraries and social programs. In 2009, there were over 54,400 business accounts and more than 199,000 assessable parcels, generating over $1.76 billion in tax revenue, an increase of $160 million from the previous year.
I hope you will find the information on our website helpful. Please contact me if you have any comments or suggestions about our service.
Sincerely,

Phil Ting
San Francisco Assessor-Recorder
