Union County Assessment Office Closed Wednesday, Feb. 11, 2026 for Training

The Union County Assessment Office announced it will be closed on Wednesday, February 11, 2026, for staff training, a brief notice posted on the county website on February 3, 2026, said. The short release asks the public to note the temporary closure, but it does not specify hours or whether phone and online services will be affected.

Residents who typically visit the office for property questions, parcel records or in-person help should adjust plans and confirm availability before traveling. The county notice is terse and offers no contact details in the posted excerpt, so anyone with an urgent assessment matter, upcoming deadline or scheduled appointment should check the Union County website or contact county offices directly for guidance.

Across California, other assessor offices have made similar announcements this season. The Colusa County Assessor's office published a series of planned three-hour training closures running from September 2025 through February 2026, including a session on Wednesday, February 11, 2026, scheduled for 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM. The Colusa page lists six dates and times for these training sessions and explains that they are intended to improve service: "This training is part of the Assessor's office's commitment to providing excellent service and will help staff better assist residents with their needs. We appreciate your understanding and patience." The Colusa listing also states, "The office will reopen at 12:00 PMto serve the public as usual." Colusa names Bob Buckner as Assessor and lists its office hours as Monday through Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., at County of Colusa, 547 Market Street, Colusa, CA 95932; parcel maps and assessed valuations are available through the ParcelQuest link noted on the page.

San Diego County's Assessor/Recorder/County Clerk (ARCC) likewise scheduled an all-team training closure for Thursday, February 12, 2026. "The Assessor/Recorder/County Clerk's offices will be closed on Thursday, February 12, 2026, for an all-team training," the ARCC notice states, and adds, "We will be back to serve you with great customer service on Friday, February 13, 2026." The ARCC also reminds property owners that "Between December 1, 2025, and April 30, 2026, if you believe the market value of your property has fallen below the assessed value as shown on your current property tax bill for 2025, then you may submit a request for an 'Informal Review of Assessment' for your property." Jordan Z. Marks is listed on ARCC materials as ASSESSOR | RECORDER | COUNTY CLERK.

Closing offices for training is a common practice in both public agencies and private firms. A private accounting firm that closed its offices for staff development last year apologized for disruption and described training as central to service delivery: "We apologise for any disruption this may cause you, please know that this training is a fundamental part of developing our people so that we can continue our approach to client service delivery, referred to as 'Business Oxygen'."

For Union County residents, the immediate step is practical: verify whether the closure affects only in-person service or also phone and online transactions, and confirm any appointments or filing deadlines before Feb. 11. If you have property tax questions or time-sensitive filings, consult your county's assessor resources and note the informal review and business filing deadlines posted by neighboring jurisdictions so you do not miss critical windows.
