Eureka County Assessor: Veterans' and Disabled Veterans' Exemptions

The Eureka County Assessor (Michael A Mears) administers the State's exemptions, offering property owners "assistance with property tax exemptions, appeals, and understanding assessment processes"; the office prints no amounts, so the 2026-27 figures rest on the Nevada entries.

Also called: property tax, assessor, NRS 361.090, NRS 361.091, Eureka, Michael A Mears, plat maps, AB489, surviving spouse.

For: Veteran or service member, survivor.

Where it applies

Written for the jurisdictions listed here.

The exemptions are the State's, under NRS 361.090 for a veteran who served in a listed period or campaign and NRS 361.091 for a permanent service-connected disability of 60% or more; the Nevada entries explain them, including the rule that separate ratings are added together. The Eureka County Assessor administers them under Assessor Michael A Mears. The office's own description (read 2026-10-26): "The Assessor provides important services to property owners, including assistance with property tax exemptions, appeals, and understanding assessment processes. The Assessor ensures that property assessments are fair and equitable, reflecting current market values, and works to ensure compliance" with the statute. Its site offers the change-of-address form and the assessor plat maps in PDF format, and no exemption amounts, so the 2026-27 figures ($3,640 of assessed value for a veteran; $18,200, $27,300 or $36,400 at 60%, 80% or 100%) rest on the Nevada entries. A veteran claiming brings the DD-214 or certificate of satisfactory service and the VA percentage documentation to the office; the June 15 real-property deadline the State entries carry is the operative one.
