Purpose of the Board of Equalization<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Board of County Commissioners serve as a County Board of Equalization and is charged with the responsibility of equalizing value.\u00a0 The Board is to determine if the market value placed on your property is fair and accurate – not whether the tax is too high or if you can afford to pay the full amount on your property tax statement.<\/p>\n

The Board has until the 2nd Monday in July to complete decisions on equalizing assessments.<\/p>\n

If you do not agree with the BOE’s decision, you can appeal to the State Board of Tax Appeals.\u00a0 Forms are available at the office of the Board of Commissioners and must be filed within thirty (30) days of your written decision notification.<\/p>\n

BOE Hearing<\/strong><\/p>\n

The property owner (Appellant) will present first.\u00a0 You will be allotted approximately ten (10) minutes to present your factual data on comparable sales, demonstrating why you believe your property is assessed above market value.\u00a0 The property owner has the burden of proof in seeking affirmative relief to establish that the determination of the Assessor is erroneous.<\/p>\n

The Assessor’s office then presents their case with the same allotted time.<\/p>\n

Each party will then be offered the opportunity for a closing statement.<\/p>\n

The Board will close the public part of the hearing and the Chairman will open the hearing for Board discussion.\u00a0 The Board will make a motion\/decision and the hearing will be over.<\/p>\n
