Colorado's 2020 repeal of Gallagher means Cheyenne County no longer applies a preferential residential assessment rate, so your home will be assessed at market value without a cap. The Senior Homestead Exemption is available to Cheyenne County owners 65+ with 10+ years continuous occupancy and substantially reduces your property tax burden — submit your application to the Cheyenne County Assessor once eligible. Review your Notice of Valuation from the Cheyenne County Assessor and request a hearing if the assessed value appears excessive.
