Placer County's 2005-06 assessment roll grew to $44.9 billion, with a $5.8 billion increase over last year. For the fifth consecutive year the assessment roll has increased by double digit percentages. The continuing high rate of new construction and appreciating property values are responsible for record breaking growth in the assessment roll.
