Board of Assessment Appeals

Mission Statement

This Board’s purpose is to hear taxpayer appeals regarding the valuation of taxable property.

Valuations

By statute, the Board’s authority is limited to adjusting property valuations, up or down, based on errors in property descriptions, valuations, and/or property defects. 

Valuations are based on values at the time of the last revaluation, not on current market conditions. The Board does not have the right to raise or lower individual property taxes.

Meetings

The board meets twice a year, in March and September, except as noted. Meeting dates TBD. Please refer to Calendar when/if posted. 

MEETINGS MAY BE HELD VIRTUALLY ON ZOOM. CHECK AGENDA FOR INFORMATION.
