Board of Taxation

About the Board

The County Board of Taxation falls into two major categories, administrative and appellate.

Administration

The Administrative section is responsible for:

• Acting as assessors upon own initiative
• Acting as liaison between the assessors and the data center
• Ascertaining the level of assessments in each district
• Calculating the tax rates
• Distributing the cost of County government equitably among taxing districts in the County
• The establishment of percentage levels of true value
• Preparing the Abstract of Ratables
• The supervision of tax assessors

Appellate

In the Appellate section, the Commissioners sit as a quasi-judicial board and hear appeals from taxpayers and taxing districts and direct adjustments to assessments, when justified by law. Such adjustments are by written memorandum of judgments.
