The Kenton County PVA is a state employee with local jurisdiction. The PVA is an elected official who is charged with assessing all property, both real and personal, at 100% fair cash value unless specifically exempted. The PVA’s most complex task is to estimate fair cash value for all property in the county Tracking ownership changes, maintaining maps, updating building characteristics, and admi

nistering proper exemptions for real property are also ongoing responsibilities of the PVA office.The Kentucky Constitution requires equality and uniformity through fair market value assessments. Fair market value is defined as the price that property will bring in a fair voluntary sale between a willing seller and a willing buyer. The assessment date for the valuation of all property is January 1st. Your Property Valuation Administrator’s office does not set property tax rates nor does it collect property taxes.

Why is the Review Request Form (Appeal Form) only available during business hours?

The law requires that you have a conference with a PVA representative. The form was designed to make it convenient so that people didn't have to schedule appointments with our office, take off work, etc.) As such, you can't have a conference with a PVA representative if the office isn't open. The form has been available the last two Saturdays and will be available on Monday from 8:15 am to 4:15 pm EST. If you are unable to submit online, please call our office and we'd be happy to assist you between those hours. We encourage property owners to not wait until the last minute as the inspection period is dictated by law.

Reminder, we're just weeks away from major changes to how you can access the Kenton County Government Center in Covington‼️

Our partners at KYTC District 6 are closing both the northbound and southbound 12th Street exit ramps (shown in red) to I-71 beginning Tuesday, May 26, to accommodate extensive infrastructure work related to the Brent Spence Bridge Corridor project. Concurrently, Bullock Avenue flanking the interstate will be closed until October 2026, with Simon Kenton Way (in dark blue) set to accommodate two-way traffic.

And while exit ramps might be closing, our offices are not. You can still access all agencies within the Government Center during regular business hours. You can access the Government Center via Dixie Hwy and MLK Jr. Blvd. or utilize the state's recommended detour of exiting onto 5th Street and taking Main Street to Pike Street. We have vehicular entrances on both Simon Kenton Way and Pike Street for residents.

Not interested in navigating the traffic? That's OK too. Most residential services available at the Government Center are also available at the Historic Kenton County Courthouse in Independence. The Kenton County Clerk's Office, Kenton County PVA and Kenton County Sheriff's Office all have team members onsite during regular business hours to assist residents.

For more information on the closures, visit KentonCounty.org and click on our "Traffic Alert" at the top of our homepage.
