Fall River/Oglala Lakota County Register of Deeds Office is now accepting applications for an Administrative Assistant position. See employment tab for more information. 

Deadline for the Elderly & Disabled Tax Freeze is April 1st.

This program prevents the homeowner’s property from increasing in value, for tax purposes. This means that as the value of the home increases, the homeowner will pay tax on the former (lower) value. Property is defined as the house, garage, and the lot upon which it sits, or one acre, whichever is less.

To qualify:

• you must be 65 year of age or older, or disabled
• you must own the home or have retained a life estate in the property
• your federal gross income plus any income not included in that figure (this includes Social Security Payments) must be lower than:
  • $41,579 for single member household (2025 value, values change every year)
  • $53,459 for multiple member household (2025 value, values change every year)
• The full and true market value of the property must be less than $345,391 unless the applicant has received the assessment freeze in a preceding year on that property.
