Re: Arizona State Retirement System ("ASRS") 
Dear Ms. McCarroll: 
Enclosed is a copy of the 2020 Government Lease Excise Tax Form for the Arizona State 
Retirement System ("ASRS"). Under A.R.S. § 42-11102(C), the "ASRS" may elect to have the 
taxes on its income producing properties based upon their full cash value as determined by this 
Office ("voluntary contributions") or pursuant to A.R.S. § 42-6201 et seq., it may provide for a 
government property lease tax ("GPLET"). The ASRS has timely notified the Assessor's Office 
that it is electing to have its sole property in Maricopa County taxed under the GPLET framework 
for tax year 2020. That property is a high-rise office building located at 3300 N. Central Ave, 
Phoenix (APN #118-37-021P). 
The enclosed Form submitted by the "ASRS" representative contains the property data necessary 
for the computation of the lease tax, as well as the total computed tax, which is due and payable 
to the Treasurer on or before December 1, 2020. The form (Government Property Lease Excise 
Tax Form) was completed and approved by representatives of the "ASRS". We have checked the 
computation on the 2020 reporting form against A.R.S. 42-6201 et seq. including prior years, as 
well as coordinated with the County Treasurer's Office, We have found it to be accurate. This 
year the ASRS reporting Form states tax due for 2020 to be $26,945.00. 
As we have done in prior years, my office will coordinate with you to have this item placed on the 
next available Board of Supervisors agenda. If you have any questions please contact my 
Assistant Chief Deputy, Lesley Kratz at (602) 506-7154. 
Sincerely,
