Welcome to the Assessor-County Clerk-Recorder website. Our site is designed to provide you with easy access to and information on the many services our office provides to the citizens of Riverside County.
Property tax law provides certain protections for applicable property when values decline under Proposition 8.
We have put together a Prop 8 page which provides information, applications, and other useful links to answer many of your questions. Our goal as the A-C-R is to be proactive in recognizing reduction in property's value and ensure that no property owner pays more than their fair share of property taxes.
Please feel free to contact me about this site or any other matter of concern.

Same Sex Marriages
On Monday, August 16, 2010, the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals imposed a stay on Judge Vaughn Walker’s
ruling overturning Proposition 8. This stay will remain in place until the federal appeals court is
able to issue a decision on the constitutionality of California’s same-sex marriages.
Hearings have been set for the week of December 6, 2010. The Riverside Assessor-County Clerk-Recorder
will comply with the orders of the court, and as such are unable to expand our services to same
sex couples. We will continue to monitor any new developments and will keep you informed of any changes.
