For the first three quarters of 2022, the City of New Orleans Bureau of Treasury has issued 32 revised real estate tax bills for residential properties that the OIG identified as having benefited from homestead exemptions and a senior freeze reduction despite the listed homeowners being deceased. The Assessor’s Office has also removed the homestead exemptions and senior freeze reductions for these properties. According to the Bureau of Treasury, the City of New Orleans is due more than $204,555 in additional property tax revenue from these 32 properties.
