You can't deduct assessments made by a government for improvements to your property.

For example, the paving of a dirt road to your home or business. You can add them to the basis of your property if they increase the value. On the other hand, you can deduct as taxes assessments for maintenance or repairs, or for meeting interest charges related to the improvements.
